I'm not a fan of being tracked so don't get me wrong, but without the money earned with advertising the Internet will look very different and not only in a good way.
A lot of advertising is annoying and misleading, even good advertising can lead to people buying stuff they don't need. I am definitely not pro-advertising but it does serve more than monopolistic capitalism, especially on a more local level.
