If I saw myself onscreen telling myself to buy a product I've never seen or used: I would not buy that product or use that service. It feels violating to have your image used against your best interests (of not being manipulated to be capitalism's bitch) like that.

That is a hell-scape (to me).

Inserting yourself into shows... that's feels different, but my gut tells me advertisers will corrupt that idea quickly. Product placement...



With most things, Today's hell-scape is Tomorrow's Hippie Idea, Day After Tomorrow's Normal, and Next Week's You-Are-Cancelled-If-You-Don't


Could you show any example of that pipeline? I'm trying to think about technology not using which would result in being cancelled, but can't come with anything
