I'd ask for the inclusion of the link 'criticism of advertising' on the 'see also' section but it is blocked for edition. I hope the block of the article isn't lobbied by the ad-mafia It is necessary for the article completeness and non-biasedness etc. I'm not logged in, so please just include it. I cannot receive answers and I shouldn't really care. It is your responsibility. Thanks. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_advertising 94.60.183.139 (talk) 22:48, 26 March 2025 (UTC)Reply
