Here's a question? Why am I not being paid to witness or watch your advertisements? Why don't I get a portion of the profits, regardless of the platform? I'm actually all for targeted ads; I shouldn't be getting alzheimer medication ads at 27 or diabetic medication ads when I'm not at risk. But hey, a new video game or movie ad? Sign me up.
I think blockchain will be the revolution to this nauseating ad-nonsensical world we live in. Already the Brave browser is trying to implement this (with admitted failure so far, but they're trying) and I see future platforms adopting this. The number of ads in Youtube have skyrocketed and I know most of the profits do not go to the content makers. I'm all for advertising but I want a fairer share of the pie for content makers, myself and more targeted information.
Where and how this data should reside, this digital fingerprint should reside is problematic. I don't trust any corporate or financial database as the experian hack has shown. Still, we should be asking these questions and continuing this dialogue. No more nonsensical ads, a fairer partition of the pie distributed and less ads, but more quality ads.
