I'm a business owner and I rely on advertising, and I would still ruin advertising.
1. Advertising gives advantages to the largest richest corporations and stifles competition from superior small businesses.
2. It makes people stupid, they don't take the time to investigate products before buying, because they are literally brainwashed from hearing the same bullshit every day from advertisers.
3. It wastes our time. It is 2017, it is the information era, if you want a product you open a web search and look for it. Advertising is no longer necessary or relevant, and it is stealing moments from people.
There are more reasons.
Advertising is already dead, and if your business operates solely on advertising then your business is in real trouble. I started telling people this a year ago and they laughed at me. Get off that flaming wreck now while you still can, or sink and burn with the rest of them. The smart people are already looking for new revenue models. Adapting to new conditions is a critical part of survival skills, and if you can't do it you won't survive.
