You should ask people who were there instead of doubting.
News articles are extremely available and things were so early that they did all fight like hell as a new industry.
The internet itself was the new unknown tech to politicians and their lobbyists just like ai is now.
Little is actually new except it’s maybe be to you just like the current crop of politicians the tech of the day that might impact power or connection between people.
Learning about the difference collapse the differences. The best thing to say is I want to understand and saying we don’t understand is a big step in that direction.
Ads are just information too. Where you search good content or bad content, the results (videos and ads) align with that easily. If you really want to unites how it’s really easy to go read something written by someone sorry experienced. In case you work in or around adtech it’s your call but ignorance isn’t really a reason.
Your secondary point speaks to m, meta data, which can be as good as identifiable data.
If someone removes your name from your bank statement it will still tell a lot about you.
If we think it can’t be tied to, the grocery store loyalty program which can also share your individually purchased item data will now share what groups of items you buy and potentially for what purpose.
Then there’s the clickstream of what your browser visits. Let’s remove the name from that, but that data is available too.
Your cell phone location data can’t be attributed to you, but generated maybe it can overlap and then everything wider in it.
All is this kind of data has been commercialized by tech and conveniently available for other privacy invading purposes as well.
