      Because advertising is harmful in itself and particularly inappropriate as Twitter's funding strategy.

      Advertising is a negative-sum game.

      Sometimes it's funny, & given infinite attention to spend might be ok, but it cuts into attention I was trying to spend on something else.

      For the advertiser, they spent money wasting my attention and at best got nothing for it.

      More likely, they annoyed me and made me less likely to buy or recommend their products.

          thus clickbait, crowding out actual content with ads, and feeding more and more subscriber data back to the ad agencies. \

          Springbok jump straight up when they think a lion is stalking them. This means "I _could_ outrun you, let's not waste energy proving it."

          When BMW spends millions of $ on billboards, this means "our product is so good we can waste millions on advertising and still make money."
