AdScam… The Weblog… The E book…

Readers of Extra About Promoting might or might not know that I’ve written a weblog titled “AdScam” for the final twenty years or so. In it, I level out the occasional good factor occurring within the advert biz, however extra usually or not, I kick the shit out of the multitude of dangerous issues more and more going down. When you test it out, pay specific consideration to Friday’s posts, particularly T.G.I.Okay.M.F. That’s “Thank God It’s Kate Moss Friday.” Wherein I characteristic footage of Kate from my large Kate Kollection, as a rule flashing her bare titties.

This will get me banned from Fb for a few weeks, as ZuckerNozzle has a factor about nudity within the Metaverse. Moronic avatars are OK, however no tits and arse. Anyway, sufficient about AdScam the weblog, let’s transfer on to ADSCAM the guide. My good good friend, Bob Hoffman, he of San Francisco advert fame and author of a superb weekly weblog, has give you yet one more nice guide… It’s titled ADSCAM… Sure, he requested my permission to do the homage, which I gladly gave, in return, asking for a Porsche. This he promptly purchased for me. It’s six inches lengthy and runs on three triple A batteries.

Anyway, the guide kicks the shit out of the tracking-based internet advertising business which he finds much more corrupt and harmful than ever. Describing it as One among Historical past’s Biggest Frauds and a Risk to Democracy. Bob peels the scabrous layers of the rotting onion that’s the advert biz in the present day. He does it with such panache that Fu Man Chu would flip envious. Oh, wait a minute, Fu Man Chu is inexperienced. Shifting on… Bob concludes that the tracking-based internet advertising business is “a legal racket of epic proportions. It’s a large worldwide rip-off — organized crime at a worldwide scale that has been normalized by involving nearly each main company, each pretty-sounding commerce group, and your entire promoting, advertising, and digital media business.” Robust stuff certainly. Wrapping issues up, Bob means that we should always ban monitoring on the Web.

Sorry, Bob. It’ll by no means occur. Primarily based on the advert biz’s previous efficiency, it’ll in all probability worsen. Time to get again to my Kate Kollection.
