#SmartTV OS owners face “constant conflict” between #privacy , #advertiser demands

Most smart TV operating system (OS) owners are in the #ad sales business now. Software providers for budget and premium TVs are honing their ad skills, which requires advancing their ability to collect user data. This is creating an “inherent conflict” within the industry

Advertisers want to know “exactly what you ate for breakfast.”…

>This seems like a mirror image type strategy
mirror the best parts of society while sheilding fedizens from the extractive ponzis, but giving them access to said poisons if they REALLLY want it.

>This is why I have a pet theory that commercial attracts commercial and noncommercial attracts noncommercial
content that appeals to ppl, attracts ppl.... ppl are generally attracted to ppl.... corpos want to attract ppl willing and able to buy. There are tension here, and its not a BAD tension, but wanting to stick head in sand and say all mention of money is BAD, actually hurts us as human ppl, not just as fedizens.

>influencers (....) dipped [into] Fediverse, [left for #blusty] I'd rather see noncommercial [succeed] than to try to win back the influencers
good to know influencers know they are less effective on  fediverse. it means our trash antenna is well tuned, i didn't notice too many shills.... they mayve been prevalent on CAGEMAFIA servers, which i block and dont even bother talking to 95% of the time. a few years ago I saw a trashy tabloid-ish, corporate-friendly instance with posts in its wall about hollywood, smoking subliminals, and lego (wierdly a LOT of lego), it was intoxicatingly corporate and pity any fool who ends up on one of those. But we risk losing ppl to places like that if we build an echo-chamber of strictly "non-commercial" as you put it. We have really no business yucking others yums, if a normie comes here and seeks out, say xbox, or a sugar/fructose/glyphosate/alcohol/gambling/poisoning corporation, just let them have that poison, but yeah the corpo-influencers are not too difficult to spot and i'm pretty sure we would be able to label them fairly easily, then an instance admin can add a "{Reasonably considered} an {advertiser} for a {publicly traded company or brand thereof}" label and that entity will only be visible in searches.

* ^^^ noting new alternate category to a business, 'advertiser'. Also qualitators like 'Confirmed/Admitted' (in bio, no extra output needed, eg. just say "Advertiser for blah"), and 'Reasonably considered' (posts from such entities are only shown in feeds of those who subscribe.... for everyone else their posts are visible when ppl use search). #advertiser

Again, the #smallBusiness or (#)marketplace hashtag, is where this was discussed a week ago. I suggested setting up fedi instances for locales and small business industries (eg. coloradowest.zone, organicfarmers.ca etc), that way there is a nice suitable instance ready for small businesses to use.

If there exists a local business you like setup an account for them and use #seo techniques to help them find it. Why not duck into the store and congratulate them on joining fedi,  haha.... once they verify that theyre the business, hand them the account. :)

Seriously thats how fbook got big in the first place.... problem is fedi isnt ready for the big time.... still too much reliance on CDNs, when what we need are (#)DCN (Decentralized Content Nodes) for maximum resilience.

Once we have DCN....

Embrace #smallBusiness,
Extend them their  fediverse account to continue using (or close),
Extinguish the extractivist pratforms and publicly-traded, central-bank-gerrymandered ponzis.

Stop waiting for politicians to enforce antitrust. Digital Feudalism Counter Action (DFCA Antitrust Law) blocks Google, Amazon, Facebook, Cloudflare, Apple, Oracle, Akamai, Alibaba, Tencent, Musk and Microsoft, with a popup when a program tries to contact them.

The other day I've watched one #YouTube live #stream in my secondary browser, w/o #AdBlock.

What the actual duck is YT thinking - MUTING the stream and playing the the ad side-by-side/split-screen?

Not only did i fail to figure out how to click-through, to the advertiser, now i've MISSED the whole ad-duration of the stream!

What, am i supposed to time-shift back and de-sync myself from chat?

Which #advertiser would want to associate their brand with such a nonsensically infuriating nuisance?

Найбільші рекламодавці відмовляються співпрацювати з X (Twitter)

Причиною цього став антисемітський допис власника платформи Ілона Маска. Це рішення рекламодавців є іще однією проблемою для соціального сервісу, який фігурує в цілій низці скандалів та втрачає ціну.
