“the data used in targeting ads are garbage. The algorithms being used to deliver advertising are garbage. Nico concludes that old-school mass marketing, without targeting and audience data, will “create better ROIs in many situations.”4 The whole edifice of online advertising is, in short, bunk.”
Tim Hwang, Subprime Attention Crisis: Advertising and the Time Bomb at the Heart of the Internet

“In 2017, advertising constituted 87 percent of Google’s total revenue and 98 percent of Facebook’s total revenue”
Tim Hwang, Subprime Attention Crisis: Advertising and the Time Bomb at the Heart of the Internet

“At its core, advertising is a marketplace for attention. When your eyes breeze over an advertisement as you scroll through your news feeds or read an article, a transaction has occurred. Your attention has been sold by the platform and bought by the advertiser.”
Tim Hwang, Subprime Attention Crisis: Advertising and the Time Bomb at the Heart of the Internet
