The solution to Ads is to create an alternative. We call this an Offer and it differs in the following ways:

User Choice Ads: no (platform decides) Offers: yes (user decides = opt-in)

Privacy Ads: no privacy (your data belongs to them) Offers: total privacy (no info collected)

Rewards Ads: no reward (platform keeps all value) Offers: cash rewards (paid by seller)

Participants Ads: seller -> ad platform -> buyer Offers: seller < - > buyer

Disclosure: founder of sellff.com. We created Offers to facilitate a more effective and honest way for buyers to connect with sellers.
