    Context aware advertisement doesn’t need spying on users and hasn’t been shown to be significantly less effective.

      But as most of the companies providing and running ads are very much on the tracking users business, e.g Google/Meta/Amazon/Microsoft etc, I’d imagine they won’t be very willing to provide your site with tracking free ads, and the smaller companies that would, probably can’t provide anywhere as nice of a payout.

      So you are left with the people who would be willing to reduce their profits for the benefit of their users, and looking at what a shitshow todays internet is, there’s maybe a dozen of those left.

      Yeah but it’s more work for the website to implement their own ad-contexts, so obviously the website owner is the problem here /s
