But random JavaScript and GIFs from who knows where, with no transparency about how they got there and whether the owner is getting paid to run that specific ad, are no less bad. Did they sell my data to target me personally? Is Acer paying them to run ads on a page about HP laptops? Who knows. That’s completely opaque and untrustworthy today. You have to assume all in-page ads are compromising today because they largely are.
