That grey area is largely what I'm referring to. That, and also hashtag feeds that start as creative outlets and then get saturated with both transparent and veiled advertising. For example, in DC, #aCreativeDC is a very popular hashtag that is full of advertising of some form, albeit often artistic and well done advertising. The same is true for other popular "lifestyle" hashtags (e.g, #nyfoodies etc etc).
