... that kind of sucks actually. I'd rather have personalized ads that just random ass ads.
I actually tend to agree. I value privacy and I hate the idea of Meg-O-Corp selling my data all over the world but on the other hand, I’ve bought some really cool shit that I love off targeted ads
So are targeted ads better than just ads? Yes for the consumer in me, no for the private person
Maybe it will counter people buying stuff they don’t need, in addition to better privacy.
