They are not suggesting the ad is making people aware of Apple. They are suggesting that the ad is making people aware that Intel sees the M1 as a legitimate competitor, therefore suggesting to buyers that it is a worthy alternative to Intel's products. An unintended consequence of attacking a specific competitor or product is that you can raise awareness of the value of your competitor's product.

- totalZero 6y agoIt's cool that you recently learned what the Streisand effect is, but you're talking about a product that was announced in a special event named after Steve Jobs's catchphrase, praised by every vlogger under the sun, and benchmarked to the moon and back. Go to the Mac homepage and you'll see "Welcome to the future of Mac." I really don't think this is some kind of secret to the general public. Give the people some credit.
