    I think the point you are missing in both cases is that the so-called customer is not who they are advertising to. In Coca-Cola’s case, they are advertising to investors. In Twitter’s case especially, they are advertising to potential advertising customers and data mining organizations.

    You are not Twitter’s customer. They don’t care whether or not you exist.

      You just keep saying different things and then acting like that’s what you’ve been saying “the whole time”, but this is literally the first time you’ve introduced “investors” into it.

      But that’s also nonsense. Coca-Cola doesn’t need to buy ads during the Superbowl to talk to their investors; they already have a mailing address for literally every Coca-Cola shareholder. Every publicly-traded company does. When Coca-Cola wants to tell you, the shareholder, something, they just host a phone call and, like, tell you with their mouths. They do this once a quarter, in fact, if not more frequently.

      Aren’t you embarrassed about being wrong all the time?

        Okay, you obviously can’t talk to me without being hostile, so I don’t think I’m willing to continue this conversation. I’m not interested in Reddit behavior. Goodbye.

          You think I was rude, but that’s just because I’m objecting to the Gish Gallop of idiocy you’re bringing to this. If you’d stuck to one point and tried to argue it in good faith, that would have been something.
