Honestly ads aren't that bad when done right. For instance, the yellow pages had ads but they didn't follow you wherever you went. We need ads that people want to look at. If I'm trying to find something g to buy I don't mind looking at an ad. I just don't want it to be everywhere and end up being malious
Welcome to the pro-data-collection team! We're wildly unpopular online.
Yellow pages is not targeted advertising. We need static content
Static content is literally the opposite of "ads people want to see"
