Imagine an encyclopedia.
Now imagine I own the encyclopedia, and Walmart offers me money.
So i paste Walmart’s Xmas catalogue pages in between the useful information in the encyclopedia. You ask about frog facts, you get frog pajamas. You try to look up cultural information and get travel ticket prices. You never planned on purchasing anything, and you are too poor too anyway. But somehow I and Walmart make money off of your displeasure.
This is ad revenue. This is the modern economy. Its a sham. Its an infinite money go brrrttt machine for billionaires.
Enshitification.
