No, I disagree. Journalism is driven by market forces, but there is nothing preventing journalists from printing the truth except their desire to not bite the hand that feed them. This is not the fault of the marketers, but the fault of journalism integrity.
Unfortunately, you can't pay for your rent or food with integrity, and journalists are already underpaid enough as is, as opposed to the marketing leeches
I wish the author had called out some of the blockchain-based initiatives he’s seen. It’s frustrating to read an article that complains about a problem, acknowledges people are working on it, but doesn’t link to or explicitly name any of the efforts.
I am not fine with it.
Marketing is broken. It's 99% waste. It's causing many problems and this is just one of them.
Over and over again businesses make products that aren't really what people want and then they do whatever they can to shove them down the markets' throat. Businesses will advertise to 1000 people to get only one customer. Targeting is only effective when people's privacy is being violated.
I think this is one of the biggest problems no one is talking about.
