    I actually tend to agree. I value privacy and I hate the idea of Meg-O-Corp selling my data all over the world but on the other hand, I’ve bought some really cool shit that I love off targeted ads

    So are targeted ads better than just ads? Yes for the consumer in me, no for the private person

      Maybe it will counter people buying stuff they don’t need, in addition to better privacy.

      The solution is not personalized ads, but localized ads like what ExplainXKCD does.
