Was just browsing the Internet in a VM with script-blockers turned off for a bit, and half the sites were like "IT PUTS THE DATA IN THE BASKET OR IT GETS THE HOSE AGAIN!" with multiple videos, dozens of ads and and 99 pieces of third-party Javascript loading in the background. The amount of advertiser profiling and data sharing that goes on when you visit these noisy sites with a mobile device is even higher and more invasive, which might explain why I do most of my web browsing inside a VM (but with script blockers turned on).
The noisier the ads, the more quickly the user installs an ad blocker.
Online advertising killed itself.
The world of marketing is composed of bright individuals behaving like absolute fools as a whole. And they always find a fooler way to fuck themselves.
I'm very hyped to discover how they are going to shot themselves with those AI ads they are so keen to unleash now.
