So you want to live in a world where only companies with massive ad budgets breakthrough to end users? The ad empire only strengthens media/big app lock in.

  I want the ads to be clearly labelled and only accessible when I've asked for them. Wasn't that the idea of Google AdWords? Show people results ranked by relevance, and insert a few related sponsored products at the beginning with a different presentation.

  Let's be honest, that's already happening anyway.

A lot of these sites are probably already breaking FTC rules. If one runs an affiliate link blog they're supposed to disclose that relationship when they show the links (and in a way that the reader won't easily miss it). [1] It was a big thing in video game streaming that even stuff like free game codes given to content creators can require something like #ad or #sponsored put in the stream title.
