Advertising should be viewed through the same lens as code injection is in computer security (when an attacker gets a computer system to run a program that it actually shouldn’t and that usually benefits the attacker).
The point of an advertisement is literally to inject the idea of a need into your mind, a need that you didn’t already have before (“You *do* actually need a new car.”), or a more specific version of an existing need (“You’re need food? You should really eat *this*!”).
It’s an attack on the integrity of your very being and it should be defended against.
