All advertising is harmful, a complete ad ban would be wonderful, very hard to enforce thought.
The only good advertising is honest word of mouth from buyer to buyer. No marketing team involved
I disagree with this. If a new shop comes out, how are they supposed to get word-of-mouth over the bigger, more shopped at shop, even if it is better? People will stick with what they know, and the new shop will die. Maybe this is a naïve perspective, but that’s how I am thinking here.
Good point. Some degree of marketing should be allowed for small companies
Eu should stop the chat control
Honestly let’s just ban all advertising, except for maybe small signs.
Why? It helps people see things that are relevant to them which helps them find things they want, helps small businesses find niche audiences, and keeps the economy moving.
This sort of anti-technology stuff is why the EU is becoming an economic backwater vs. the USA.
