        I think it's my duty to watch the ads on content I didn't pay for. Unless it's an autoplay ad on a text post, that is; that @#$%@ gets skipped.

        The way I know that *all* of social media is a scam is this: I've never in my life clicked on an ad, and any algorithm worth discussing knows that I never will. And yet, they all show me ads which some idiot pays for - even though FB, GOOG etc know that it's a total waste!

        No. The ostensible point of AI in online advertising is to sell best users' eyeballs at the right price. I happen to know the right price for mine: $0. I'm certain GOOG's algo knows that too. It's just happy to sell its customers lemons. Because info asymmetry
