Read Jerry Mander. Not much has really changed here. TV ads may give you weird feelings, but they still get the ad implanted in your head. What worries me personally is that the casual nature of ads being sponsored on individual's accounts on TikTok is more alarming. It's like we welcome these implanted messages like it's normal, and in fact it's so faux because those creators need money to survive too. Do also pay attention to the emotions behind each ad, they are usually very uplifting for something very tragic or something very dark for something that's not even a problem to begin with. Advertisers don't have to do much work anymore when they can pawn off their dirty work to people with established followings shilling product they themselves will never use.
