Yeah or bike adjacent stuff… helmet, chain lube… hell even a biking vacation… but stop with the profiling
Comment on Why is the internet overflowing with rubbish ads – and what can we do about it?

I still think targeted ads should be illegal. I would accept static ads that are based on the content of the site rather than me as a compromise.
So like if I’m looking at example.com/cool-bikes you can show me bike ads. You don’t need to know who I am or track me.
It’s good enough for the past few decades (centuries?) it’s good enough for now. The Superbowl doesn’t serve a different ad to every viewer.

And targetted ads aren’t that much more effective than context based. So the internet has been compromised, misinformation has run rife, and platforms hijacked to threaten democratic nations so some corporations can have 6% more effective advertising. What a deal. I believe thats the approx effectiveness difference.
