From violations of privacy, to the mainpulation or even maliciousness at its core, I think marketing at it’s current state is poison to society. But I also think it might be a necessary evil. What would be a good alternative implementation of advertising look like? Or do we even need it? If the former, how would advertising look in a non-capitalist society?

    Now that you say it, I don’t think advertising has made an impact for what I want to buy in a long while(other than when announcing an unknown brand or when I already am looking for that product, and even then I don’t think I have bought anything solely based on that).
