In what sense is "You may have won $100! Watch these 5 advertisements to find out!" palatable?
- everybodyknows 9y agoIn the sense that it exploits only the reader's poverty or greed, and even the most credulous will soon tire of watching ads, close the page, and be wiser for the experience. Whereas "People might like you! Refresh the page and view another ad to find out!" cruelly exploits a desperate emotional vulnerability. And there is no end of it in sight.
