I did the same evaluation with the same conclusion a while back too. How much do they make per year on the ads I see? Why not let me bid for my own eyes? They can't come out worse. Somewhere in the serving of the ads, they check my profile to see what kind of ads to use for me, why not let me purchase a "blank" ad across swaths of my own activity?
