I’ve wondered recently if we’re going to see in the next 10 or 20 years a split generation of people who are susceptible to ads. I heard anecdotally someone talking about his kids who weren’t exposed to ads much because they (as a family) buy the ad free experiences - when they did see an ad, it was extremely effective and they were explaining to their father how much they needed this thing.

Alternatively, are the poorer kids going to be the ones inoculated against advertising because they are exposed to it constantly?

Given the way our society is becoming more and more ad-focused, I have started to think that marketing should be taught to more people earlier. My first marketing class was a 300-level elective in my junior year of college, and it was invaluable in understanding the subtle ways advertisement is meant to reel you in, and how nobody is truly unaffected by advertisement, no matter how much they think they are.

Unless they're using uBlock of course.
