- throwaway3699 6y agoI think you miss my point. Even if online advertising (as well as marketing, but that's a different concept) was completely worthless, the number of paid dollars would not go up, and the "total GDP" of the internet would go down. If that's a desired future we should be honest about it, but it's a future without as many independent journalists who can't afford a team to sell their content, for example.
