You do realize that with adtech dying those sites and services will go out of business, right? Or you didn't think that through?

Businesses existed before targeted ads. There were tv, news papers, magazines without tracking selling user data.

Your comment makes it seem like these businesses are invented recently.

I'm tired of these excuses of business dying.The online ad tech industry brought it themselves.

Also I care more about people than a corporation that exploits people; which is opposite of American culture.

When will this happen? Does it happen before or after Hollywood stops making films because piracy, and the entire recording industry falls over and bursts into a fire?

We’ve had newspapers for hundreds of years and they’ve been fine, but now somehow they’re gonna go out of business? Come on, you can do better!
