    Sometimes few people raise much voices. Those who bother and search for new engine are early adapters of technology, spends money on new gadgets and such. Those are who ads are after, not my grandmother.

      I would think they’re infinitely more likely to click an add.

      Shit I hate ads that much, if I see one for a product I might actually want I’ll still search it manually. It’s ingrained in me to avoid ads on the internet and to shut them out as much as possible irl where imo they’re even more an eyesore.

      Edit: to add, I do agree with the sentiment, but just not in this instance. With protesting as an example where it can apply.
