Banning personalised ads does not mean banning all ads. Although personally, I'm no fan of any kind of ads, and I wouldn't mind if the entire ad industry disappeared.
And if that means ad-driven websites disappear too, I don't see that as a big loss. The best websites are not ad-driven.
- kwanbix 3y agoDo you think a generic ad has the same value as a personalzied ad?
- mcv 3y agoI think they're all worthless.
- RestlessMind 3y agoYou are wrong. Personalized ads are worth far more to advertisers and publishers. Also to the end users based on their actual behavior. Source - worked on ads for a few years at FAANG.
- mcv 3y agoYeah, but they're worthless to me. I don't think I've ever clicked one of those personalised ads. Their personalisation sucks, they generally show stuff that's not remotely relevant to me, and I've long ago learned not to click any ads.
- RestlessMind 3y ago> Banning personalised ads does not mean banning all ads. People prefer personalized ads. I know many friends who like Instagram ads, but don't care about ads on some random news site.
