    No different than the decades of ad supported broadcast television.

      Except I didn’t pay a monthly fee for over the air TV. The Jeffersons didn’t cost 4.99 a month

      Terrible argument. You can’t ignore scale. Algorithmic timelines increase efficacy and precision of ads tremendously. These platforms know exactly who to target with what ad, at what time, with what frequency to get the desired result. It’s like comparing a horse and buggy to a sports car.

      Generative ads will be even worse because they can be made specifically to each individual.
