If your perspective is that of an advertising company, then I can agree.

If your perspective that of a user, then no fucking way.

Advertisers and those that use them are trying to suck every penny from every corner of the web using psychological manipulation to get you to buy things you don’t need with ever increasing precision.

The internet of today is a shell of what it used to be. Either you are too young to have experienced the good internet, or you work in advertising.
