  • Okay, well most people who have issues with digital advertising don’t have as much a problem with ads as they have a problem with the negative externalities of how ads are currently implemented on the web. It sounds like you might have a bit of an extreme view.

    As evidenced by lack of general public outrage over e.g. advertisements in magazines or newspapers.

  • You don’t think there’s at least a minor difference between an ad that directly pertains to the content you are directly reading, and is in fact from the same “vendor,” versus an ad piped in from an auction driven by your browsing behavior from all over the internet?

  • Also you have to look up how to open it (regardless of where you live) if you haven’t encountered one before. Truly, truly bizarre design.

  • Because it’s a different issue with different principals involved.
