So maybe people DO care, but just feel like they can't do much about it?

If there is advertising (and I accept it pragmatically as a revenue source), I _do_ want it to be relevant — but relevant to the content I'm reading, not based on some constructed profile of me.

That seems far better for publishers, advertisers, _and_ readers.
