The Death of Advertising
While I agree with the initial observations, I disagree with the concluding thoughts.<p>The headline is click-bait; I would love a world in which ads, useless things which only annoy me, cease to exist.  They do not offer me utility or value.  I already know what I want, and when I don&#x27;t I &#x2F;then&#x2F; use a search engine.<p>Brand names are also a form of consumer protection.  In that respect I believe they shall remain.
