   This is what happens when people are treated as "consumers" to be extracted from. The current debt-based economy encourages this kind of behavior.

   The early Google AdWords ads was at least fairly simple and required little tracking. I mentioned this in the essay/overview.

   I wrote an essay with more detailed history for a reason. It is probably worth linking it here: http://yuhongbao.blogspot.com/2018/09/google-doubleclick-moz...

   That is why I wrote the essay. The history behind that is not simple.

    In the meantime, there is still a lack of interest in my essay on this.

    Part of the problem is that the entire debt-based economy is based on extracting more dollars from consumers.

    The entire debt-based economy fundamentally depends on debt always increasing and has at least since US got off the gold standard.

    Yea, I dislike the current debt-based economy for a reason.

    Yea, that was what my essay/overview was about, including tracing these problems back to Larry/Sergey. It is probably worth posting a link here: http://yuhongbao.blogspot.com/2018/09/google-doubleclick-mo

    I began working on the Google DoubleClick Mozilla essay earlier in the year, though I am not as famous.

    I actually mentioned "opt-out" links in spam in the essay.

    I blame the current debt-based economy that has existed since the 1970s.

    I mentioned Google Analytics in my essay/overview.

    The fun thing is that the Google and Larry/Sergey case turned to be more complex than this. I mentioned Ruth Porat in the most recent overview.

    Yep, I mean YouTube existing within Google obviously.

    It was mentioned in a private email that the only reason YouTube exists is that Google's servers happens to have a lot of free disk space in the days before SSDs.

    I dislike the current debt-based economy (based on extracting more US dollars from consumers) partly because of this reason. There is a reason why I wrote the Google DoubleClick Mozilla essay.

    The most recent version of my essay/overview mentions Ruth Porat. This is one of the reasons why the current debt-based economy is horrible.

    It happens that I was working on the essay right as Cambridge Analytica was hitting the news.

    Yea, I mentioned in the essay that "In many cases, advertisers managed “remarketing” lists of “anonymous” visitors that was being tracked by cookies from a central console without thinking of the privacy problems, treating visitors alm

    Amazon shows some of the problems of the current debt-based economy. Most Amazon orders are with credit card debt, and of course most of it is imported from China and will be affected by many of the Trump tariffs.

    This reminds me of how Hynix was able to bypass the anti-dumping tariffs in 2003-2008, partly by using the Eugene, Oregon and later Wuxi, China fabs.
