Ad networks could still work, they just wouldn't have the targeting data to work with or the usage data they can sell as an entirely unrelated business model. They were profitable before the current big data push, there's no reason they couldn't continue to be profitable without that big data again
Do you think our economy has changed since big data targeted advertising? Your example is the same as Blackmists', essentially. We're 30 years down a path and flipping a switch like that would have widespread repercussions. Again, I'm not saying the repercussions shouldn't happen.
Yes it has changed, for the worse
