>> This simply makes you, at best, look naive in your believe that your conscious self is responsible for all (or even a majority) of your actions
And I'm pretty tired of advertising.
Incidentally this subconscious effect is one of the best possible reasons to block ads. I think that regardless of commercial considerations, pushing your brand that way is underhand and actually evil.
>> wrong/lying (who remembers everything they've ever purchased and how they came to know about it?)
I'm not claiming I have always taken this view, so I'm not really required to remember everything I've ever purchased, but I do take the view that our purchases are one of the few powers we consumers have. If I don't like your actions, be those unethical actions taken by the company or intrusive advertising, I won't buy your stuff.
