Sure, until websites starting stuffing ads into every crevice they could find.

I feel somewhat uncomfortable defending the advertising industry; for years advertising networks abused user privacy, tracked them beyond what is appropriate, and pushed the boundaries to the point that this type of platform-level enforcement was practically inevitable. That said, much of the weird, wonderful parts of the early internet were accessible to everyone because advertising allowed them to exist and pay their bills, particularly when users may not have been willing to pay.
I love Apple’s Privacy Protection, but as a Creator, it’s a Nightmare.
