Thanks, very interesting and informative comment on how the ad business works. In my head I'm hearing Frank Zappa sing "I am the slime from the video" and Mick Jagger sing "Satisfaction".
It shouldn't sadden us though. We have to protect our children from this crap, the best way is to not let them see it until they are old enough and then to teach then how to distinguish between information and bullshit from someone selling crap.
We can only go so far in asking others to protect our children and our elders, we have to step up to the plate also.
We still haven't figured out how to turn the tables on this and monetize our attention, it is extremely valuable, more so than we think.
