Wrong premise, ads are an important way people discover products, add build awareness.<p>The real problem is individual tracking and targeting. Blockchain will not change this, nor micro payments. I could still track you and charge a personal rate. People also prefer the hidden fee of the internet. Most find ignorance a bliss and there is nothing wrong with that.<p>What we ought to do is pass legislation against tracking and targeting, going back to the days of contextual advertising like magazines in days of past.
