Why do you say that "nobody denies it" when that is exactly what this blog post is doing?
You are claiming to remember all ads seen over decades. Even people with eidetic memory cannot do this, and in my experience people who claim to never see a perfect ad are the most susceptible to advertising. Influence is a lot more complicated than a simple banner ad that you think you've foiled by not clicking.
And I've explained several times why every ad impression is not perfect relevancy for you. What ads you see are a highly complex mix of the platform, running campaigns, targeting chosen by advertisers, optimizations in play, predictive analytics and propensity to action, pricing models, 3rd party data providers, inventory supply chains, creative formats, and many other factors. Trying to take trillions of ad impressions and derive the state of tech from it is both inaccurate and nonsensical.
