What greatly fascinates me is that apparently no one in the advertising industry looks at all the effort that goes into subverting their rather invasive tracking and comes to the conclusion that maybe, just maybe, they've turned the tracking dials just a tad to far to the right.

There seems to be zero self-reflection from the advertising industry. They'll try to find ways around these new measures in Safari, rather than wonder why the hell someone is going to great lengths to prevent their tracking.

You see this on places like LinkedIn as well. People in the ad business have zero reflections on why companies like Apple do this or why the EU is trying to regulate their industry. It's always whining about how their right to do business is infringed. The entire online ad business just seems to be completely morally bankrupt.
