Nobody in Ad Tech is going to risk jailtime for a slightly higher CPM.

I think you are more correct than you realize

I disagree - it's 100% a factor of how much money you have to pay in legal fees.

Zuck would be happy to take that data, and because he's worth a cool $350 billion, he'll do whatever the fuck he wants with that data, and we'll thank him by cutting his taxes.

You think Donald Trump would put him in jail?


You have no idea what you are talking about.

Nobody wants to fuck with PII, platforms will blackball you in a second if they think you have sensitive data. If you haven't worked in adtech, be quiet and do even the most trivial research before spouting nonsense.

if you have, i won't take ethically-compromised advice from you.

charitably, i think the choices one makes to enter into that profession belie a lack of consideration for the broader good of humanity in order to profit a select few - choices that necessarily include misdirection and manipulation of actual people. choices that that lead me to take behavioral advice from such folks as essentially worthless.

slur me if you like.
