Doc Searls’ "The Adblock War" series
Adblocking is, as Doc Searls claims, “the biggest boycott in human history.” Since August 12, Doc’s been posting what I can only call an in-depth, analytical, evidence-based rant. It is not to be missed.
- Separating advertising’s wheat and chaff (12 August 2015)
- Apple’s content blocking is chemo for the cancer of adtech (26 August 2015)
- Will content blocking push Apple into advertising’s wheat business? (29 August 2015)
- If marketing listened to markets, they’d hear what ad blocking is telling them (8 September 2015)
- Debugging adtext assumptions (18 September 2015)
- How adtech, not ad blocking, breaks the social contract (23 September 2015)
- A way to peace in the adblock war (21 September 2015, on the ProjectVRM blog)
- Beyond ad blocking — the biggest boycott in human history (28 Septemper 2015)
- Dealing with Boundary Issues (1 October 2015 in Linux Journal)
Doc says (in an email) he is “building the case for what ProjectVRM, Customer Commons and Mozilla (notably its Content Services group) are quietly doing to disable surveillance capitalism.”
