And how do you know about the existence of a product to go shop for in the first place, if not through advertising and promotion? Or do you have infinite time

And how do you know about the existence of a product to go shop for in the first place, if not through advertising and promotion?
Or do you have infinite time to go browse every single store in your city on the odd chance that you'll see something you want?
- CRConrad 6y agoIf only there were some way one could search for specific things on the Web.
- TedDoesntTalk 6y agoThere are these wonderful things now called search engines. And they existed before online advertising was tied to search, so before you say search engines would not exist without advertising attached to search queries, think again.
- sbarre 6y agoHow do you know to search for something if you haven't heard about it before... via some kind of... promotion? I get the point you're making, but I hope you realize you're just backpedaling from your original "no advertisements ever!" statement. I believe in giving people better control over how they receive ads (I personally run an ad blocker in my browsers and a Pi Hole on my network), but you position that there should be no advertising at all, and that all ads are unethical is just silly, and you're proving that point yourself here..
