Social media enthusiasts face a common dilemma: unwanted ads that pop up on their screens while they search for meaningful content. Marketers might see high-frequency advertising as a win, but a recent academic study shows consumers are irritated by digital advertisements in three key ways—ad exhaustion, frustration and disturbance.
