    You need to inform yourself about advertising. Go and look up Edward Bernays. You literally can’t stop ads affecting you, except by eliminating them. You think you’re being a critical consumer, but you’re right where they want you.

        That’s pretty presumptive. And pretty unlikely as you’ve shown yourself to be very naive about how advertising works. If you have any qualifications in it, your initial confusion shouldn’t have been there.
