Reverse-engineering Google’s "Skip Button Guarantee" 3 years ago

The way I see it..

1. Internet ads were supposed to solve the “who’s watching” problem. By letting advertisers target their audiences and display ads on vetted sites.

2. *but* Advertising companies also offer stuff (either browsers or product features) that are on the “bleeding edge” when it comes to protect their users privacy.

3. Marketing departments anywhere from big to small sized companies know and/or deal (kinda..) with advertising fraud cuz they want to “show work”/“good quarterly results”..

4. Most of the users, just want to freely access content in order to trick their minds into feeling amused when in reality their just bored

5. Only a small fraction of the remaining users (from 4.) are capable of understand and deal with all this..

So.. The Internet is either doomed if this continues, or in the process of becoming an even bigger trash can if “they” get way with this :/

Anyone here up to starting Internet 2.0?! :)
