All modern adtech is a terrible idea.

Let's go back to banner ads that are "targeted" based on what type of website you're looking at, rather than based on vacuuming up as much private info as possible about users.

Yeah, revenue for that is pennies to the dollar compared to tracking. I am not defending it but it is not a simple switch to stop being evil and everything is fine. Hundreds of thousands of services would shut down that relied on ads to function. Which, again, they are relying on a predatory business model, but still.

Is the revenue for that pennies on the dollar because tracking exists, or is that what it is worth?

I have no expertise in this, but I don't see why anyone would pay for banner ads for more than pennies on the dollar if tracking is an option.

Wouldn't removing tracking change the economics?
