Privacy based advertizing:
Develop ad
Think about what websites your target demographic will probably frequent. (Be creative, dear marketing person! You can do it! This is the essence of what you're getting paid for!)
Pay those sites to display your ad
Done.
No. Why? It's simple. They are collecting data I don't want the ad networks to have instead of the ad networks and give it to the ad networks. That's only more private than the status quo if I'm okay with them to have this data and trust them to handle it responsibly. Which I have no reason to.
See explanation above. That's not too complicated to explain to a person that managed to turn on the computer. It only gets complicated when you try to follow the mental gymnastics you need to think this feature adds privacy for anybody.
This exactly. We don't need some in-between "compromise".
