¶ … programs result in greater "targeting" of advertising, or are they just as mass market in nature as television ads?
The 'marketing' of malware programs can involve either a mass or niche marketing approach, depending on the nature of the applications designed to track browser activity or the 'free' offers used to seduce internet users into handing over their personal information. One of the examples provided in the case study is the 10-year-old girl who navigates to a game site, only to be confronted with pop-up ads. If the games offered through the website appeal only to a limited age group, and the pop-up ads are designed to target this age group, then this would be an example of niche marketing. On the other hand, if the website offered games that appealed to all ages and the pop-up ads were designed accordingly, then this would represent a mass marketing strategy. Another example provided in the case study is the 'Crush Calculator' delivered to MySpace and Facebook users. Without knowing more about this application, the target market would probably be anyone old enough to have gone through puberty and would therefore represent a mass marketing approach.
The 'Ambush Advertising' engaged in by Claria is a form of niche marketing, because internet users would be confronted by competitor pop-up ads after navigating to a defined product or services website. The example provided in the case study is an OfficeMax pop-up ad appearing over the Staples website. Although a percentage of people navigating to the Staples website could be merely 'window' shopping or doing research on products and prices, this is still far from a mass marketing approach. The negative attribution unwelcome and irritating pop-up ads could be garnering from some users though, could be undermining any advantage that niche marketing provides to an ambush advertising strategy. For example, young kids might not be as annoyed as older adults by the intrusiveness of ambush advertising.
(Snyder & DeBono quoted in Kjeldal 2003, Introduction section, ¶ 6). The results from the study Kjeldal (2003) conducted with 70 participants in two stages suggest that the word association responses high self-monitors (HSMs) produce reflect selective activation of a personally meaningful, experiential, system. The responses low self-monitors (LSMs) produce, on the other hand, indicate an intellective factual system. 2.

Subsidies involve help that is given to other countries so that they can reap more profit from what they are creating and exporting, while countervailing duties work to ensure that the taxes and tariffs that are paid by these countries are not excessive so that profit can still be made.
