I agree. I also think ads do influence us way more than almost anyone would believe or admit. Why else would companies spend hundreds of millions of dollars on ads without batting an eye. Many products cost as much or less than their ad campaign cost to make.

So I try to avoid ads as much as possible. I haven't seen or heard an ad in a long time aside from billboards and posters which are basically impossible to avoid.
