~20 years ago people were deeply concerned about the impact and influence that sophisticated television and radio advertising campaigns were having on people, culture, and the economy.
It's gotten so bad now that we seem to have forgotten about how creeped out people were about the comparatively tame advertising through broadcast media. It's not safe to assume the world will march forward to be better or more moral as time goes on. We're just as likely to regress as progress, and the myth that progress is a passive endeavor makes it more likely that we won't.
