Just as the title says: Have you ever clicked on an ad, knowing it was an ad, on purpose? What ad was it? Why did you click it?

Curious because I realized I have not once in my life clicked on an ad shown online on purpose. Accidentally, and being tricked into clicking the wrong thing sure; never with intent though.

    Never, but clicks aren’t their only goal. They’re planting info in your mind. “Who should I call about auto repair? Well, I’ve heard a million ads for Leif’s, guess I’ll try them…”
