“Intelligence marketing, thought leadership, advertorials, infomercials… all these classic marketing formats were developed to meet business

goals – sales, conversions, brand engagement – by adopting an essentially editorial approach”

Though marketers face a new case where strategies of promoting a brand needs to change due to Ad sensitization

“For advertisers spending billions to reach people, one of the biggest

concerns is to understand how people are consuming media,”

“Users almost never look at anything that looks like an advertisement,

whether or not it's actually an ad.”

What can consumers do to get more access to the internet

without the extras? Ad Blocking

<a href="http://www.freepik.com/free-photos-vectors/background">Background vector designed by Freepik</a>

“198 million people globally are now blocking ads, up 41 percent

from 2014. In the US, ad blocking grew 48 percent from last year, to 45 million users”

Rosenwald, Michael. "The Digital Media Industry Needs To React To Ad Blockers ... Or Else". Columbia Journalism Review. N.p., 2016. Web. 23 Oct. 2016. <a href="http://www.freepik.com/free-photos-vectors/arrow">Arrow vector designed by Freepik</a>

What has changed?

“while print ads were relatively innocuous and

unavoidable, digital ads are different. They aren’t static.

They blink. They follow. They irritate. And readers can do

what they never could in print: erase them.”

Rosenwald, Michael. "The Digital Media Industry Needs To React To Ad Blockers ... Or Else". Columbia Journalism Review. N.p., 2016. Web. 23 Oct. 2016. <a href="http://www.freepik.com/free-photos-vectors/school">School vector designed by Aranjuezmedina - Freepik.com</a>

With all the desensitization, there is

an occurrence of a ripple effect

<a href="http://www.freepik.com/free-photos-vectors/background">Background photograph designed by Bedneyimages -Freepik.com</a>

“Users are inadvertently putting their favorite websites out of business,”

Rosenwald, Michael. "The Digital Media Industry Needs To React To Ad Blockers ... Or Else". Columbia Journalism Review. N.p., 2016. Web. 23 Oct. 2016. <a href="http://www.freepik.com/free-photos-vectors/business">Business vector designed by Freepik</a>

By ad blocking on websites that you frequently visit, you are taking away and limiting a source of

income for the website provider.

Overall, we are potentially looking at a future with no content as we are unwilling to accept advertisements or

because we have blocked them off completely

Or Else". Columbia Journalism Review. N.p., 2016. Web. 23 Oct. 2016.
