New hot take after spending countless hours going through years of accumulated paperwork at my elderly uncle's: every mailing that is an advertisement should be required by law to have the words "this is an advertisement" printed on both sides of the envelope or postcard, with FTC enforcement power.
The quantity of deceptive, time-wasting mailings my uncle has received is appalling. This simple law would fix that.

Having the joke explained to you will never be as funny as getting it.

Which is what happens when we borrow interest, instead of doing our own identity work.

It's what's happened with Scarlett Johansson and OpenAi. Bette Midler and Ford. Tom Waits and Frito-Lay. The list will go on.

More on borrowed interest and the enshittification of everything:

The project I'm best known for - the documentary THE ILLUSIONISTS (https://theillusionists.org) - was released almost 8 years ago. So many things have changed since then! I wrote about this on my personal blog: https://newsletter.elenarossini.com/revisiting-the-illusionists-8-years-after-its-release/

Topics include: #advertising #bodyimage #diversity #stereotypes #empowerment #parenting

I know I typically post about #tech and #LEGOs here but what can I say? I contain multitudes 💁🏻‍♀️

Cars. They're fun for the entire family.

Buy a polluting gas guzzler today and we'll give you €500 to fly somewhere on holiday. Spread the joy of fossil fuels far and wide.

Fun for the kids as well: colour in this picture of a huge #wankpanzer of the kind that is particularly good at killing kids and if you're lucky you might win tickets to be driven to a adventure park.

Was discussing the neighbor's insistence that the gardeners kill everything yesterday ("they nuked the yard with Roundup" I said) and now my son is getting Roundup ads on Facebook. Yesterday, I mentioned one of my kids' names (which is very close to a brand) and that brand is being advertised to him, too. (I deleted Facebook long ago and will never load it or any of its software, because of that creepy snooping). I guess his generation just assumes they are being listened to all the time... #advertising #surveillance

Apple pulls the controversial "Crush" ad and apologizes.

"The ad, posted on social media Tuesday by Apple CEO Tim Cook, was met with backlash from internet users who felt that the ad celebrated technology’s destruction of human creativity and art."

Woof, that Apple iPad ad. What the hell were they thinking?

I reflexively cringed when I saw this ad. Not only is it wasteful, the message sent across appears to be that Apple literally crushes all the things you like to make the new iPad.

Tone-deaf.

What's an online ad you see so often that you naturally distrust the advertiser because their repetitive ads are so annoying?

For me, it's Grammarly. Or maybe Temu.

#TMobile USA sends mobile phone usage data to #PushSpring, which T-Mobile acquired in 2019.
T-Mobile assigns a unique ad ID to your cellphone and gathers app usage data.
To opt out and remove all data of you, there's an app - "magenta advertisements platform".

For me it's horrible that they do so without telling and that the app is somewhere hidden - no one would come up with that name!

I'm thinking ITV is not getting the viewers for Red Eye that it had promised its advertisers.... what makes me think that?

The fact that in today's Guardian ITV has paid for an effective six (!) pages of advertising for the series - 2 x double page, 1 x full page, 2x x half page...

Oh dear....

I'd love my 'local' feed to be more aligned ghost signs-related topics, eg history, urbanism, architecture, advertising, graphic design, etc.

Is there a nice, perhaps smaller, instance I should consider moving to?

I'd prefer mastodon—I'm used to it now, and could bring my existing posts with me—but I would consider other fediverse services.

I'd be grateful for a #boost or two😀

Interesting thoughts from @parismarx

https://disconnect.blog/embrace-the-splinternet/?ref=disconnect-newsletter

As someone from #Brazil, seeing how much influence the #SocialMedia (actually #advertising ) companies are exerting over social/political/economic themes with little to no accountability, the concept seems appealing.

Also, we have a gigantic talent pool and a lot of human potential strangled by this very centralization in Silicon Valley that steals talent away from the country or suppresses local competition.

Pay per privacy?

ORG has responded to the UK Information Commissioner's Office consultation on the 'consent or pay' model for online advertising.

Either subject yourself to profiling or pay to use a website without tracking – where's the freely given consent?

It's a violation of your right to privacy in the interests of predatory advertising and an attempt to coerce individuals.

Facebook is now showing ads to my son for homesteaders preparing wild cardoon plants (wild artichoke), because I told him how to prepare it while out hiking with the dog the other day. (obviously, it's still listening...) #advertising #creepy
