Ads became obsolete once the web and search engines went mainstream. Surveillance advertising is not a perversion of an honest and necessary service, it&#39;s the last ditrch attempt by an obsolete industry to save itself from oblivion.&#xA;&#xA;I agree with Adbusters. We don&#39;t need advertising and we need to work towards its abolition.
