Rising Up with Sonali interviews Mara Einstein about BLACK OPS ADVERTISING
Thursday, September 22nd, 2016A discussion with Mara Einstein, author of Black Ops Advertising, about the new wave of hidden advertising.
“Now, in the new and unregulated world of the Internet, ads are increasingly becoming less visible and companies are blurring the lines between content and advertising so much so that corporations looking to sell products are simply creating their own content. If that content is compelling enough, we consume it, we share it, and we may buy products based on our exposure.”

advertising increasingly subsumes all content. Everything will look
free, but hidden agendas, data collection and fakery will be everywhere.
This is the internet as con trick, where the natural human instinct to
share news and gossip is co-opted as low-cost marketing for brands and
others who do not fundamentally care about us except as sources of
revenue.”
