my rule of thumb for buying any product or service is that if it needs paid advertising then it probably isn’t worth it. otherwise I would have heard it independently from somewhere or someone
I can kind of see an argument that you exchange your attention for services online, but ads forced on you IRL should be illegal. If ads are a form of payment, then unsolicited ads are theft.
Advertising (and capitalism in general).
Seriously.
Marketing is nothing more than convincing people to buy stuff they do not need.
It is the reason we live in a consumer culture that is fucking up the planet with useless trash.

Advertising is pollution of our soul
