@lauren I don't think it's obscure in the world that people think the online world is overabundant with ads, both in the sense of there being too many and intrusive (i mean really, you don't hear complaints about YouTube?) and they're being too creepy. regardless of what you've run or who you are, or what people spontaneously confess to you, I think the evidence you are using to press whatever case you are pressing is perhaps not very strong.
