Can we improve the internet by boycotting sponsors?
It seems to me that most of my time spent online is wasted. 9 out of ten times when I look for something I get something other than I wanted and I have to look at an Ad and find where I click to close to see it.
OK you computer geeks may think that for YOU the internet is nearly perfect, and my problem is I never learned how to use a computer, Well the advertizers think of me as a potential customer. I have got into the habit of buying the lowest priced product, because the brand name products appear to me to be overpriced. I keep thinking that a few percent of the price goes to the brand's advertizing budget, so by buying the brand name product I am paying for something that wastes my time.
I hate my computer so if I see something advertized on it, I will associate the hostility I feel towards my computer with the product I see advertised.
Perhaps we can e-mail the sponsors and say that if a website doesn't work right for me, I will write the sponsors name on a list of stuff I refuse to buy.
