How will ad-supported sites function without ads? Government subsidies?
It's more like the minimum wage argument or something like that but you don't really need an analogy.
Advertising itself is only mildly offensive; if done with taste it can be no problem at all, but too many companies seemingly don't know when to stop - the line from Ready Player One about monetizing 70% of a person's field of view sounds exactly like what Meta and Google would do if they could get away with it.
I want legislation on this topic to create breathing space for real businesses which make things of value.
