I don't mean to be rude but I genuinely can't think of any service I've learned about through advertising. Do you have an example? I actively seek out product reviews and trailers for things I already know I want but I don't think an ad has changed my mind, just changed whether I buy A or B

How would you know? If you heard about it through word of mouth, and the person you heard it from heard it from an ad…

Good point. Friends, family, and colleagues keep telling me to buy stupid things they see from online ads all the time. They're probably pushing me towards an equal number of non-stupid things and I just don't notice.

In my personal life I pretty much never see ads and I like it that way, but thanks for giving me something to think about.
