1. Yeh.
Meh. The kids I know don't want ANY advertising, they don't want to pay anything and they certainly don't want tailored advertising. That ad is an example of an industry deluding itself.

4. That's what I find so creepy about this current ad campaign.
What fresh hell of advertising can we expect?

5. Ads overlaid electronically as you look around the environment
A coupon will float and beckon from the window of a cigar shop you're walking by, offering cheap but legal post-apocalyptic Cuban cigars for pennies on the dollar due to the radioactivity.
