Consumerism

People are consumed by their phones every day giving the marketer a huge advantage on advertising. Have you ever noticed how all these companies have converted over to twitter, Instagram, Facebook? It’s pretty obvious that these companies are desperate for attention. All they want is for you to see their product and magically want to be made to go buy. Nine times out of ten when I see a Twinkies commercial, I don’t want to go to the nearest grocery store and buy them. That’s what companies think is happening because they believe in their own product being better than everyone else’s. So when they see that everyone uses this website or app, the companies immediately jump on the opportunity to annoy us with ads that get in my way while playing angry birds. A beat is never missed if it means getting the word out. But what about our privacy. Shouldn't we at least get a say in whether or not we have to see these ads. We do but it comes at a price. Marketers know that ads annoy us so they were smart to make a second version of tricking us into paying for the paid version of the app. They always win no matter what they do. They get money from the ads from the companies and they take our money for the paid version. This is the new way of making money and it only costs our privacy meanwhile it now cost nothing for them. They don’t have to worry about stock/inventory or the other thinks say a grocery store would have to take account of for an easy life of no spending just earning profit. The evil genius’s still have to be smart enough to take into account for specific advertising, but that just requires and arm, leg and our identities. Privacy doesn't matter to marketers but it’s easy for them to get over after seeing a paycheck in reward.
