I see an ad for the steam deck and think “wow, a portable gaming console allowing me to play computer games while on trips. Very cool!”, but I am not actively googling for gaming consoles every month to see what’s released.

Or movies, basically all movies I went to a cinema for were because the trailers were played as ads somewhere. I’m not actively monitoring movie releases.

Nobody is saying there wouldn't be catalogs and "new release" feeds... they would just have to be dedicated and voluntary and not polluting everything else I'm trying to do.

If you go see a movie because of an ad and the movie turns out to be shit, are you glad advertising led you to discover that movie?

If the ad was misleading, no. But I don’t just go to a movie after seeing an ad, I then look up reviews and other information about it. The ad is just useful to know that the movie exists and is roughly something I would be interested in.
