My attention is a commodity and I should be able to set the price. Attention theft is legal and rampant.
Instead of advertisers setting targeting me, I should be able to target them (when I deign to pay for something with my attention).

If we complain about it, they act as if they were entitled to our attention, as if it was "payment" for free stuff.
