“Economic harm to … advertising service providers” says it implicitly.
- refulgentis 2y agoI'm sorry, I'm sure I'm still missing something: my simpleton understanding is taking action to ensure neutrality, implies they want consumers to see more ads?
- thebruce87m 2y agoWhich of these options in isolation will result in economic harm to an advertising company? A) A consumer seeing more of their ads B) A consumer seeing the same number of ads C) A consumer seeing less of their ads
- refulgentis 2y agoI feel talked down to :) C. It sounds to my simpleton ear like I should assume demand for ad slots will grow due to a supplier having less of a monopoly, but I'm struggling to find a step to add to my little overly(?) rational analysis that leads to that conclusion.
