Archivist David Rosenthal asks on his blog, Has Web Advertising Jumped The Shark?.
He points out that there are four big problems with Web advertising as it currently exists: The bad guys love it, the readers hate it, the webmasters hate it too, and the advertisers find that it wastes money. He then goes into detail on each point and concludes that not only does everyone involved hate the system, but that it is causing actual harm to society.

Why do you think Winston of 1984 was tortured until he professed that "2+2=5" or that his abuser floated in the air? It's because Orwell was saying that you folks try to construct society atop a foundation of abject fantasy.
Go fuck yourselves.

So, you're a parasite, feeding off the oblivious herd. Got it. As long as the herd doesn't all fall over dead, you're happy - your next meal is readily available.
