The advertising industry is in some sense dead. Only SEO, tracking, and clicking around in the GUIs provided by the ad networks remains.
I don't think there are many true advertising agents out there anymore, nor are their work valued. What I mean are people who you can come to, who will help you locate your audience and buy ads on the right billboard, website, TV shows and magazines. I also believe that where all the hostility comes from. Many of the online advertising people know full well that they're not really good at advertising, they just know how to navigate Google Adwords and their clients don't.

They use, and are in some ways complicit, with the privacy nightmare but the ad tech companies created all of it. Google and Meta are the frontrunners in ad tech and seem to do the most invasive things.
