Re: F*ck the marketers

said by swhx7 See Profile :

This admission that they would lose 80% of advertising targets (people like you and me) if they couldn't advertise at them without their permission - this exposes the falshood of their usual claim that targeted ads "benefit" audiences by showing ads for things they're supposedly interested in. If the marketers can't get a person to agree to it voluntarily, it's not a benefit for that person, and the standard excuse is a lie.
Interestingly enough, this guy agrees: »sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog···ion.html

I don't even like marketing, but I've made this guy a daily read.
