The way I see it, advertisers have violated any implicit bargain by adding the spying and surveillance aspect.

The traditional billboard or TV-ad is not part of a global system that creates a personal dossier of everything you view, how long you view it, and everyone who might be friends you viewed or shared it with you, and what groups that forms, etc.

Basically no consumer anywhere is going into it with informed consent--and they've planned it that way.
