Advertising at its core is one adult telling adult about something. There's utility there and it seems like a pretty fundamental right. Though I agree that it's warped into a bit of a monster and should be dialed in a bit.
- bondarchuk 3y agoSurely you can argue it is a fundamental right to have communication between consenting adults. But often in the case of advertising, the receiving party does not really have a choice. I would sooner argue that it should be a fundamental right to not be on the receiving end of communications you don't want, than that it should be a fundamental right to advertise to people who do not want to be advertised to.
