Companies would, and have, killed people just to make an extra cent. Of course they'd do this.

The capitalism system is design to maximize and prioritize profit above everything else, and will do it if there's no resistance.

If put ads inside peoples' ass increases profits, companies would try for sure.

I recently added some Taiwanese porn sites to my wank rotation. And while some of it is good, many studios have this annoying habit of putting temporary tattoos of adverts on the performers' bodies, usually on an asscheek and on the lower abdomen. I can't read the ads, but I'm pretty sure they are for gambling websites.

Yeah, it's really gross. Totally ruins the mood for me. Fortunately they're not hard to avoid

If you look at your poop in the toilet, then yes they will put ads in your anus. The ads would of course come out with your turds.

Bruce Bethke, the guy who actually invented cyberpunk and wrote the story Cyberpunk, wrote a book Head Crash. In which the VR hotsuit includes a "ProctoProdยฎ" for bass. Bruce's predictions have turned out more accurate than anyone else's.

They already shove ads down our throats, so it's not a big stretch of imagination to say that yes, they would totally stick ads up our arse is they could.

[โ€“] Spendrill@lemm.ee 5 points 7 months ago

Probably not, but they'd definitely patent the method.

In some places proctology isn't what it was.

I read that with an extra "i"

In which case, yes if they can then sell you the drugs you'd need for the rest of your life.

It's like coca-cola + insulin, from a financial perspective , complementary investments.

no because you can't see up your ass

But if they did this where would we keep our spatulas?

There's not much viewership, so it better be cheap. That's the only problem, though, if you're advertising the right product.

They need to siphon more data before they start the targeted advertising.
