The reality of "mind control" of those perpetually exposed to media has been a popular topic throughout the last half century at least.

Humans don't have those protections. Although, ego deludes oneself to believe they do. Ask anyone if they are susceptible to advertising. Maybe 1 in 5 have the humility and awareness to state the truth.

This is precisely why I try to see as close to zero advertising as possible, and also why I will always actively avoid buying something when I do see an ad for it (if I realise this).

I do not trust my in-built protections, so I’d rather not be exposed in the first place.
