And in the red corner, weighin in at at even... Nice rant Eric!
I kind of believe this...Google has found itself in a very influential position, like it or not. They are making tons of money, like it they do. If your end game isn't altruistic in nature then your motives come into question. Especially when so many invisible shareholders help to dictate what the future google must do in order to maintain their place at the top of the hill. At what cost does this dominance come at? Should they be unaccountable for the info they spit back? They have power and their actions (or inactions) are the causes which have far-reaching effects.
The cool thing is nothing lasts forever. So we will inevitably see a change of direction at some point. Either google, govt, or user initiated.
It would be nice to see the change user-initiated. After all, wouldn't that result in the most altruistic of outcomes?
thanks for the resources. always looking for info on how to bring in more traffic
really interesting video. fantastic find... this can negatively effect advertisers... reduction in click through rate, lower ad position, higher cost per click. just doesn't seem like a very efficient way to deploy behavioral targeting - especially on adwords.
