And, users are still very much annoyed by distracting, irrelevant, or overly-targeted ads.
How would you know, if only users who are actually annoyed are vocal about this?
I, for once, mostly see ads from the companies which I am already a happy and enthusiast customer of, for new versions of products that I enjoy. I even follow the industry news to know about new versions of these products and their reviews - and when I can't buy them, I genuinly enjoy watching youtube reviews about these products.
Do you honestly think that a person like me would be annoyed by these advertisements?
Don't you think that a _lot_ of people can say the same about their own product category that they're enthusiastic about? In my case, it's music software and hardware, but it could be cars, power tools, clothing or some other hobby that people enjoy spending their money on.
Sorry for the rant - I'm just tired of seeing the notion about how bad and annoying the ads are, when I see zero confirmation of this in my reality.
I get it. I like ads in Japan because they're entertaining. You're the first person I've ever hear of who enjoys being a target of online ads, so I'm still convinced that you are very, very unique.
