- tsimionescu 6y agoThere is nothing your client can do (other than blocking ads entirely) that would stop a company from serving you car ads on a car site - that's contextual ads. Personalized ads are the opposite - you're browsing a fashion site, but you'll get car commercials because you've been visiting car commercials lately.
- input_sh 6y ago> (other than blocking ads entirely) Easily avoidable in such case. You just need to do two things: 1. Serve them from your own domain where the URL pattern isn't obvious (so not something like example.com/ads/ad1). 2. Randomise HTML elements (div names, classes, a random amount of empty divs in between). Voila, ad-blocks are useless now.
- userbinator 6y agoRandomise HTML elements (div names, classes, a random amount of empty divs in between). That can be countered by adaptive element-matching algorithms. Just like with cracking software, it's a cat-and-mouse game, and there are far more mice out there... mice who are willing to work completely for free just to fight back against you.
- Nextgrid 6y agoThat’s an implementation issue. There’s no technical reason why a non-targeted ad needs tracking other than Google still trying to stalk people.
