Or Black Mirror style with "freemium-subsidized condominiums". Imagine cheaper condos that you have to watch commercials every couple minutes, and of course they know if you're closing your eyes or not looking (think iPhone X).
Of course you can pay a higher rent to disable them and go "ad free". ;)
- fooker 9y agoThat doesn't actually sound too bad. I wonder what prevents these at SF?
- ianai 9y agoI think at that point advertisement ROI would be essentially 0 - though maybe not for things like market research. People would essentially find ways to block out the background noise either physically or mentally.
- mikepurvis 9y agoI'm doubtful that even the most invasive advertising would be capable of generating enough revenue. $1500/mo is still $50 a day. Say you're typically only home for a few waking hours in the evening— how do you consume enough advertising to pay for $50?
- fooker 9y agoBuying home appliances a few times an year and watching recommended shows and movies could generate that amount (for young people with disposable income, at least).
- ianai 9y agoHome appliances, cars, medicines seem likely candidates. I think it would be used to assess demand for new products as well.
