    They’re working on a way to project ads onto your closed eyelids and count that as engagement. It’s technically eyeballs. Maybe the brand makes it into your dreams.

    If a scientist group figured out that overexposition to ads decreases the efficiency (zoning out) you think the market would deflate?

      ad agencies would start sell their ads as “non-tiring” or whether bullshit marketing term they come up with and nothing else would change.

      No, not at all. Sure the rich want to be richer, but hurting the poor is a goal in and of itself in our world.

      market researchers have figured this out several decades ago

      and no the market hasn’t deflated so there’s your answer

      It’s a prisoner dilemma situation. It doesn’t matter how effective the ads are on an absolute scale, but a relative one. The aim is to get more facetime than your competition. Unfortunately, any company that opts out gets flattened.

      Incidentally, this is why tobacco companies loved the ad ban (at least in the UK). It had long reached the point where they couldn’t encourage many people to smoke. They were advertising to cancel out the poaching of customers by other brands.

    Advertising should be illegal. A good case can be made for this. A short documentary: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=McsqJnRF_XQ
