      But if there’s a decent mobile website users will be able to block ads and delete cookies and then how will we track and monetize their every move?

      I remember when Firefox OS was new and the “apps” were just shortcuts to web apps. I bet websites would be less annoying right now if that had caught on.

    But… But then we can’t have 2000 employees, 10 for the website and -2 for the app and 1992 to support the mental well being of those other employees.
