that's a strange philosophy. pretty much every product has advertisements or at the very least marketing somewhere. it's simply a matter of whether you see it or not.
even this post for Kagi can be construed as an ad. it's not a bad thing - now people are aware of Kagi. that's good.
- serf 3y agocompanies have an avenue to express their values to customers via behavior. If a company is employing shady or manipulative advertising techniques in order to reach me then I make an effort to vote with my dollar in any way contrary to their continued existence. ads aren't bad, weaponized psychology has the opportunity to be quite bad
- kuon 3y agoYes, but my "poping" I mean something intrusive. Like someone slapping you. I'm ok with sponsoring, placing products in movie, having ads in my mail... But, having ads being thrown at me when I work and search for something is really something I am against. The other thing I think is really bad, is using advanced psychology to lure customers, like many "free to play" games do.
