  • Yep it’s the association for sure

    But also a factor (for those that know) is that companies will pay for their ads to run to specific demographics of people based on the data that a advertising platform (Twitter, YouTube, Tinder, Facebook, etc) has gathered to determine specific things about you as a person.

    It’s the whole concept behind targeted ads. You pay for eyes that will see it and are more likely to purchase your products due to that demographic data. Or at the very least, view your website for traffic that can be used to harvest more data about you so that it can be sold to other companies.











  • Honestly to me it seems like the harder these massive Web 2.0 corps push for Web3 and trashing their services for an ever increasing profit margin the more I think that a Web 3.0 won’t be Blockchain, but I think it will be something decentralized.

    The web is increasingly experienced exclusively through social media and with the building of more decentralized services (and the gaining traction) the more I think a decentralized social media future may be unfolding.

    I’m for it, I support FOSS for sure.
