Google has an estimated 90% market share of the mobile ads market, and advertisements are Google’s main business, accounting for 80% of their revenue. Yet, their new policies for developers using their ad network will result in as much as a 40% drop in ad revenue.

    Never thought of seeing a piece supporting ads and decrying EU strict privacy rules (which aren’t that strict, mostly just common sense). on the fediverse but there’s a first for everything I guess.

      It was originally posted on LinkedIn. I think it’s here for us to point and laugh at.

      An article being posted doesn’t mean that the opinions expressed in the article are viewed favorably.

      At least as far as poo-pooing EU legislation, I’ve seen a decent amount of it on here and have even participated. Problem is that the Europeans don’t tend to be able to handle much criticism and will dogpile anyone who brings up any concerns, valid or invalid.
