Advertising careers must attract the least intelligent people on the planet.
If it isn’t junk mail, it’s annoying telemarketing phone calls and now obnoxious flashing, floating and pop-up ads. Every time people say they don’t want the junk that advertising companies put out, they find another way to innundate us with what we don’t want.
I’ve been using ad blocking software for years. It makes the web much faster and more usable.
I understand the funding necessary for webpages, television stations, etc. Advertising supported pages aren’t the problem, it’s the way in which the ads are implemented.
