It's just like Blade Runner, where there's thousand ads everywhere, all trying
to compete for the consumers attention. Now all we need is holographic ads that
project from the screen and dance around on your keyboard (while your trying to
type).
My favorite is still Starship Troopers "would you like to know more?" everywhere you look, but Minority Report's personalized annoyances after identifying you. Then of course, there's the Black Mirror's version of ads. Black Mirror is obviously more recent, but even back when some of this older stuff was created, pervasive advertising was already being made fun of. I wonder what Robert Heinlein or Philip K Dick would have thought of what we really have today
