Non-targeted advertising for random electronics on tech sites and games on videogame sites will probably net a similar amount of interest from users at a much lower cost both financially and morally than invasive targeted advertisements. Google wouldn't have anything to sell though, so... time to blame the users who want to be left alone now, I guess.
Just looks like an economic bubble on life support.
