I despise adverts and see them as an attack on my eyes, especially irl.
That said it’s odd that I find the ones in Times Square or Piccadilly Circus (London) quite fascinating when near them. Kind of don’t mind them as they’re concentrated in those areas and well known for them. Just an interesting thought I had.
It's a bit like a concrete vs random noise.
If you had to listen to a random rock song on high volume at random times in your videos, and having 100 of different songs screaming at you when you go about your day. You would find that annoying and disorderd.
On the other hand if you went to a rock concert or festival you would be fine with it and even expect that to happen.
I view this similar. Time Square and Piccalilli Circus are just festival grounds for adds.
