    Please tell me what value Buzzfeed even creates. It’s just a seven layer dip of ads on ads.

    As far as I understand it this is almost the entire internet now. Online advertising doesn't work at all and never has. Companies have been pouring their ad budgets in to a black hole for years. As near as I can tell they just don't know what else to do because every market is so saturated. Online shopping is also starting to get to a point where the decades of loss leader anti-competitive practices are starting to have their bills come due and online retailers can't afford to keep it up.

      Online advertising used to work, and some sections still do a little like influencer and some Google Ads stuff in some niches, but in the last two years effectiveness has plummeted, even using very advanced advertising techniques.

      It's in a massive race to the bottom now.
