I'm asking for a bet on the future of Internet advertising generally. Not to take a collection of the shittiest known implementations of advertising and bet on them.

I'll interpret your response to mean you think Internet advertising (considered broadly) will be successful, and I agree with you. In contrast with the technology review post which predicts some sort of bizarre general "collapse" of the Internet (presumably of advertising as a business model).

If not please reform your bet accordingly.

ps, love to engage in an email discusion to hear more about the radio and pr(?) campaigns you have run that have worked better than Internet media.
