What's NOT fine is that the ads on sites are intrusive, make noise when you don't want them to, block up half the screen, have malware, or just jump in front of things, forcing you to look at them even if you aren't interested in them. At that point, the ads become a roadblock to navigating the site instead of something to showcase a product.No, they're not fine as a practice. They parasitically suck your time away at absolutely no benefit to you. They create incentives that lead to sanitized content and sensationalism. The reason Google and Facebook are collecting every iota of data on you that they possibly can is because they want to give that data to advertisers. --- "I play with myself" - Darklit_Minuet, 2018 ...
