It isn't a marketing scheme. It's a monetization scheme.
(Marketing is presenting products for sale. Monetization is finding ways to extract revenue from previously non-revenue-generating activity.)
(And no, the Internet doesn't run on marketing or monetization. A few of your favorite Internet services probably do, though; but probably not all.)
I accept the correction.
I have another quirk: I dislike being monetized.
