Abstract

Behaviorally targeted advertising promises more revenues for Web publishers. However, collecting the visitor data needed to enhance online ad targeting is raising concern among Internet privacy groups, the FTC, state governments—and consumers.

The Behavioral Targeting Attitudes report explores the pros and cons of a new advertising tactic that many see as promising, and others view as threatening.
