Actually they are. Ads became obsolete once the web and search engines went mainstream. Surveillance advertising is not a perversion of an honest and necessary service, it's the last ditrch attempt by an obsolete industry to save itself from oblivion.
I agree with Adbusters. We don't need advertising and we need to work towards its abolition. Industries like journalism and free-to-air entertainment need to look for new revenue sources, because ad funding is not coming back to save them.
