Comment on How does internet advertising work? Where is all the money coming from? More...

Advertising works. Not to you,

everyone thinks he is unique. but advertising really works on anyone. it is not like you are seeing an ad for nike and you are just “oh my god, i just realized i need some nike shoes RIGHT now”. but when you are in need for shoes in some future and you have to choose between nike and unknown_brand_27, it is more likely you will choose nike.

Assuming price is the same, would you pick a brand known for using child labor, or a company you know nothing about? I’d avoid the Nikes unless they’re the cheapest option.

  brand known for using child labor (…) I’d avoid the Nikes unless they’re the cheapest option.
  
  so, you are okey with child labor as long as it produces cheapest option? man of a principle, i see 😂
  
  it is a complex topic, but the fact is, that most people will choose the brand they know (meaning it was advertised to them long enough) over the other one, which is why advertising works and why companies dump money into it.
