Zusammenfassung:In a very intriguing and groundbreaking study, Goldfarb and Tucker [Goldfarb, A., C. Tucker. 2011. Online display advertising: Targeting and obtrusiveness.

We comment on the substantive importance of this finding by discussing the psychological and economic implications of the effect.
