On the other hand, it's now easier than ever to avoid all marketing in media. In the analog world you couldn't install an adblocker to your newspaper, or purchase a tv subscription without ads, or choose a radio station without ads in between. Now it's all available, and at least my world is almost completely advertisement-free -- except for those paid reviews you mentioned.
- handsomechad 8y agowhat about product placement, PR in print media, "native" or content ads. to say nothing of social media "influencers"
- distances 8y agoI wouldn't follow an influencer, though I'm not very representative obviously. I'm quite OK with product placement. Content ads require that they are marked as advertisements, and can then be blocked.
- pixl97 8y agoHeh, I think you're fooling yourself when you say 'all' marketing. The ads now are gamed customer reviews and paid comments.
