When will people learn that any advertising that occurs during extortion like this is the focal point of hate and fear?

This is like anti-advertising.

    They count on you recognising the brand name and eventually forgetting why.

    It's not "they count", it's a working conversion. Which is why it's being stuffed everywhere.

    Recognition absolutely trumps everything. You'll be more suspicious of a noname good thing looking good and cheap than of recognizable bad thing looking bad and expensive.
