with the ftc finally going after companies lately i really hope they go after these companies who make up entirely new meanings for words.

for example, it’s crazy to me that we allowed companies to redefine “unlimited” to mean “limited”.

when people pontificate on how we seem to be heading towards dangerous levels of low trust society—this is a great place to start. few things reach as many people as marketing. we can’t trust so much of what we’re being sold. that’s not good, at all.
