Here's hoping there will be a way to pay for no ads. But a question to HN: why have we not seen a mass-market adoption of a P2P, non-centralised messaging system that requires no external services to work? Mesh and other sorts of networks are cumbersome and have not reached mass-market adoption, so what (technically) is stopping a true E2E P2P platform?
> so what (technically) is stopping a true E2E P2P platform? The fact that nobody really wants a true p2p platform: you don't want to lose all your stuff if you lose the device. It is clear that federated services like email are superior for most users bar some real hardnuts mindfixed on privacy.

#27Earlier quoted context omitted.
Are these types of structurings common in the ad industry?
As an outsider, what is very common is conversion tracking, aka knowing whether people actually click your ad and buy your products, because that's the ultimate metric to optimize for. Most of the ad tracking we see in the web is actually not needed for the targeting part, but for the conversion tracking part.
