Microsoft Technology Licensing has published a brand-new patent application showing us a context-aware “ad credit” system designed to serve ads on PC and console gamers without disrupt…
You have beautiful nature scenery ruined by billboards. Assholes that drive around town with the electronic billboards as if driving down the street doesn’t already look like 90s internet advertising herpes. That’s not enough, lets let assholes boat around with an electronic billboard at the beach. Turn on the radio in your car? Fuck you, enjoy all the adverts to listen to one song; oh yeah we bought all the local stations and synced it up so switching channels doesn’t help. Turn on your TV, enjoy advertising while you try to get to whatever steaming service you want to watch; only to be greeted with advertising there. Enjoy the product placement in the show you chose to watch because you know you crave adverts. Did you want to read something on our website, well we’ll advertise our subscription to you. Check your mail? Here’s a pound of adverts for the maybe one or two bills you got; oh and the postal service isn’t profitable. Not that it should be, but all that advertising rubbish causes financial strain, and it can’t even be used as toilet paper. Anything online is littered with adverts, even then dumpster fires like reddit made a workaround to combat ad-blockers by making stupid bot advertising posts. I’m not telling you what the best pizza place in town is; jog on into the fog. It’s even infected appliances. I like my refrigerator as dumb as a box of rocks. Then you get text advertising on top of cold call bullshit. And there’s wankers that come to your door to advertise and at the store that try to sell you a phone or internet plan.
MicroSlop can get bent. I will never play a game with advertising.
Sorry for the long rant; but when it comes to advertising all I can think these days is STFU, leave me alone, and let me wipe my ass with these dollar bills instead of buying something.
If our attention spans were shrinking because of constantly being bombarded with attention shifting distractions (which I personally think is nonsense but everyone else seems to believe is indisputable) wouldn’t ads be a form of mass violence?
Advertising is the most prolific form of environmental pollution wrought by commerce.
It needs to become as socially acceptable as smoking, and every instance of it must be exhaustively scrutinised and required to be justified.
Advertising is a cancer to society.
