Who pays for advertising data transfer?
I viewed this article to clear up the question of who pays for advertising data but did not find an answer. When I view an online advert is the data displayed deducted from the data I have left to use under my data plan? I understand the need for websites to make money from advertising but wonder whether I should pay for it to be shown on my computer. Do ISPs deduct advertising data they carry from consumers' bills? Perhaps this question could be addressed under a new heading on the main page. truthordare ( talk) 20:12, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

Concerning this revert by RunnyAmiga of Bharathrajaeie's changes; not only was every word unsourced, it seemed entirely copy-pasted from this post on "smartinsights", which licenses its posts under CC-BY-NC-ND, prohibiting derivative works ( "If you remix, transform, or build upon the material, you may not distribute the modified material."), so apparently incompatible with Wikipedia. So the material might not be (re)usable even if a source is provided. ~ benzband ( talk) 18:37, 15 September 2016 (UTC)
- @ Benzband: Wow, thank you for doing this legwork. I can admit that I'm terrible about trying to suss out copyvios, even in situations like this where Bharathrajaeie didn't even try to hide it. I just warned them and hopefully that'll be that. RunnyAmiga ※ talk 18:49, 15 September 2016 (UTC)
