Dear Free Subscribers:

Thank all y’all who bought a subscription this month, all ZERO of you. Nevermind. I’ve grown tired of berating you. For now. Instead: if you buy a subscription via this post, I will do you a “favor”. If I can. Obviously, it can’t be a “physical” favor (unless you live in NYC). Just email me (copyranter@gmail).


Copyranter Two Point Zero is me, Mark Duffy, copywriter/creative director with 30+ years of award-winning experience creating better ads than you ever have. And, The Best Ad Critic In The World™ (™ pending).

So, Ad Creep ( the "creep" of advertising into previously ad-free spaces).

One of the first spaces:

Go ahead—move off the grid, live without electricity, cook your food with fire, get your water from a sparkling stream. Brands will find you and send drones blasting their jingles in the middle of the night and shining their messages into your bedroom. Down the drone with your 12-gauge, they’ll send another that’ll laser-etch their message onto your cabin walls. Ah, what a beautiful full moon…with an ad for Nike Space Jams projected on it.

Six of the creepiest ad creep examples from the last 20 years below. Buy a subscription here to see them. Or keep idiotically wasting your time.
