I think the "something that we cannot escape" the OP is describing is already here in the form of "native ads", which are advertisements presented as articles.

I think the "something that we cannot escape" the OP is describing is already here in the form of "native ads", which are advertisements presented as articles. Buzzfeed does a lot of them, and there's a non-zero cognitive load in differentiating (since they look so much like articles). I'm really not sure they're better than ads. They're certainly more deceiving.
