Targeted Ads  The ad industry has been around for a long time.
It survived just fine with out knowing all kinds of info about
everyone that happened to access a venue they occupied. They
need to return to a methodology where they actually select the
proper place to run their ads and pay for a period of exposure.
The whole pay per impression/click concept is a large part of
what has led us to where we are today. The industry has over
reached what most people find as acceptable behavior and its
past time for a correction. Sadly the DNT efforts aren't going
to be successful unless there are some teeth somewhere.
