Charge for the service and show you ads and sell your data like cable. It’s a win, win, win!
I long for a post advertising world. What cataclysmic event or human evolutionary change could cause that, I wonder.
Is there any sci-fi that has a world without advertising or is that so far-fetched it’s unimaginable to even futurists?
- morpheos137 4y agoFunny enough advertising was relatively small part of the economy until the last several decades. Now it is an "industry" in the multi-trillion dollar range. Even funnier, if Google search worked effectively for product discovery the vast majority of advertising would not be necessary.
- berniedurfee 4y agoGood point. Maybe the death of advertising comes when some entity knows us so perfectly well it automagically provides the exact thing we want/need exactly when we want/need it.
- morpheos137 4y agoGoogle used to for me at least from around 2010-2015 +/- a few years. It was incredible. Now it is usually very hard to find anything I want via search. I suppose a certain amount of defect in search results is optimal for the ad business.
