Respectfully, a lot of advertisers seem to disagree.
- coldtea 4y agoAdvertisers are parasites
- nordsieck 4y ago> Advertisers are parasites Could you explain your position more fully? Perhaps a bit about how society would function without advertising.
- pmontra 4y agoWord of mouth. Of course spreading the word of new products and services would take a lot of time so some businesses won't be able to spend a lot of money and bootstrap to millions of customers in a few months. Everything would be slower but it will function.

- onepointsixC 4y agoSo a future where only large businesses serving large segments of a market are able to operate with any success while small players have little to no chance in establishing themselves into small niches. And that's of course before getting into how you broke the primary method of monetization of the entire web.
- pmontra 4y agoThat's how it would work if we remove advertising. But is there any chance of removing advertising from the world? I don't think so. What's happening instead is that a big player like Apple is using their existing base (iDevices) to build its own advertising platform and weaken rivals in the advertising business.
- signatoremo 4y agoPardon my language, but hogwash. Ever send a resume? You’d be an advertiser.
- coldtea 4y agoYeah, and killers are not bad, because every time I kill a mosquito I'm a killer too...
- bart_spoon 4y agoThat is the most pedantic reading of their comment you could have.
