Now I'm against ads like everyone else, but if a website needs ads to survive why not just use a system that doesn't violate user privacy? I understand it might be more efficient to track individuals however if one were to just use site/topic specific ads wouldn't that offer a degree of privacy? Idk please give me your opinion.
