The wonderful days of conglomerates endlessly advertising how their candy will transform our lives. I find the argument that advertising was somehow okay before the internet a hard pill to swallow. My recollection is that ads were misleading back then and reserved for larger businesses. It pains me to think about going back to that era. On the other hand, it’s nice to find small businesses to buy from on YouTube / Instagram / Reddit. It’s also nice that I do not have to pay for these services with money. So it’s not perfect on the internet. But it does seem a hell of a lot better.
