Good thinking, Advertisers

"Plenty of advertising outfits rely on tracking and analytics services, so are not thrilled with Mozilla's plans as it's already no picnic turning a quid online."

Right so they think that if I set up my system to exclude adverts, if they manage to get one through then I'll rush to spend all my money with them while obviously in reality if an advert gets through my reaction is far more towards "I'll never ever buy a thing from these stupid bastards".

How come they haven't worked that out yet? Do they understand the word "Counterproductive"?

I realise they need to get information about their services or products out into the wild but forcing it down the throats of disinterested consumers is pretty dumb.
