The internet started out as a tool for researchers to share data between universities, but as if often the case, has turned into a massive advertising media and a minor secondary research tool.
AND, more importantly, I believe most of the ads are wasted, and upset most web users. I know exactly how and where to get what I need, and no amount of prompting that interferes with my browsing will make me quickly jump over and buy something I don't need. I'm thinking most of you are of the same thinking.
Forcing me to look at an ad while I'm researching something else will more often make me buy a competitor instead when that time comes.
I've even noticed already that many sites open a window and say: You're using an ad blocker. Please turn it off to access our site.
