Logs were our lifeblood, now they're our liability
All this effort to distill user behavior and user intent from logs... why not just ask them?????I'm still waiting for the option to see the ads that I want to see. I want to see movie trailers, something that I rarely see now because I don't watch TV. I want to see new video games. I want to see new books, what sports event are going on, etc. Why not ask me? It's literally not rocket science here but billions are spent on machine learning, clicks, storing exabytes of data or more trying to figure this shit out.Just ask me for fuck's sake, I'm more than willing to watch ads in exchange for a useful service!
