The $300B Google-Meta advertising duopoly is under attack
Somebody always brings this point up so it might as well be me this time - but does advertising work at all, particularly online advertising?<p>I refuse to believe I'm some kind of one of a kind special snowflake, but whenever I wanna buy something cheap or disposable, like food, socks etc. I just see it and buy it.<p>On the other hand when I'm looking for something I'm planning to get a bit more mileage out of, like a laptop, a pair of headphones or a cordless drill, I usually read the reviews and buy the product I think is most appropriate for me, not what the ads show.
