there are plenty of offers like that do not require you to give any personal information at all. go into any Costco and there are promotions for free samples. you can take them without even talking to the attendant. it's obviously an advertisement. idk why people bother saying things easily proven to be false. it is true that some advertising is harmful, yes. it is not the case that advertising in general is inherently harmful. it only requires a single counter example to prove false.
