The billionaire tech bros are making money hand over fist without the need for advertisers subsidizing them, and interrupting users all over the world. Little secret...the users know products exist and will go out and seek those products when it is necessary to do so. This activity leads to learning about more products through the ancient art of "browsing".
Advertising is education with misinformation
The large print giveth, and the small print taketh away.
Small print is never in your favour
