I did not say that consumers were not harmed by false negatives. I said they were harmed more by false positives.

- ajross 15y agoRight, and I said that's wrong. Or it's only speciously right: content providers are smaller and have less buffering capacity, so in the event that the cash flow to them is interrupted they will drop faster than the broker or advertiser. But all three parties have to be making money for the consumer to derive benefit from the system.
- mistercow 15y agoActually you said that it doesn't matter in which direction the system breaks, which is preposterously false.
