> Are physical ads like the ones you describe really so burdensome?
Yes. They are everywhere. I cannot look at a building, a road, or go to the subway without seeing a hundred advertisements. My brain will try to read automatically any text in my field of vision. It is exhausting. My job is complex enough to overload my brain with things I do not need or care about.
It's a war on human attention. And we need de-escalation.
I guess that it is different for each individual. And, your experience is not like mine. But for the ones like me it needs to stop.
