"Even Ads is viewed as a service to our users. Random ads are garbage. Useful ads are a benefit. Yes, it's also a benefit to our publishers and yes, it's also a benefit to our shareholders. Since when did win-win-win arrangements become a bad thing?" Lot's of assumptions in there, like the implication that an ad could be a good thing, that it could be 'useful' if its catering to you as a consumer I mean customer. We are definitely the product, offered to advertisers like sheep to the slaughter, but I suppose sheepherders do feed and provide shelter before they sacrifice you. If you think that's win win win for all involved, there are some serious moral lapses occurring in your reasoning.
