Seriously, why do you think all of the unquestionable things humanity has built have been built? It's because it's all just part of the job, for somebody. People working at ad-tech question the things they're building just like the people at McDonalds flipping a burger are questioning the cholesterol levels of their customers. They're not.

The creative thinking that comes up with ideas like this is not something to discourage. It is a shame that the effort is for such a shit purpose, but these "people" are not stupid, and not many other areas offer these kind of challenges.
