To me, they're very different. The TV is something I sit and watch, mostly
passively, occasionally changing channels. (When I watch at all.., and I
usually have a book or some crochet so I can do something else at the same
time.)
But my computer is something I actively _do_ things on, from writing e-mail
to playing games to designing web pages. In some ways it's an extension of
me -- of my brain and of my hands. So maybe I see push ads and other
intrusive things as more personally invasive. But apart from that
interesting possibility, since I use my computer for doing things, an
interruption so someone can force-feed me an ad is not going to be well
received.
