Re: Loathing the Texas state legislature

Quote:
Perhaps if you see all human interactions as zero-sum.
That's how advertisers see it. You're a mark. And it's axiomatic: The more a thing has to be marketed, the less value it intrinsically provides. I know what I want, and I seek it out. When something seeks me out desperately, I instinctively avoid it. (Kind of like a sorority girl. I only chase what's indifferent to me.)

I shudder to wonder what kid of person not only allows banner ads (who doesn't use ad block?), but actually clicks on them.

Any moderately talented hacker could break that pretty quickly, or so I'm told.
And find what? Who has a computer with a unique internet device number listed to his own name? Who has a Facebook account linked to an email account not exclusively used for FB (holding no other contacts or info, save false data needed to open up the dummy email account)?
