[Ipg-smz] Truth in advertising - Chan Zuckerberg Initiative

[Phil Shapiro]

Mac's answer is very funny -- and here is mine -- 


" Together, we can build a future for everyone and you can kiss your sweet privacy goodbye. 

You'll be battered with relentless and intrusive advertising each and every moment of the day -- 
but it'll be a better future for everyone, but primarily for our company's executives, who wouldn't 
be able to spell the world irony if you chiseled it in mirror-writing on their forehead."

How about 'a crappy future' or 'a good future'? Just saying 'a future' doesn't really say anything. 


Plus - wouldn't there be a future whether or not this company has anything to do with it? 

How about 'give us a chance, and we'll take your money'? 

Or maybe the short-term JC Penney slogan - 'If it fits, you know it.'? These guys are clueless.

Their tag line is -- 

"Together, we can build a future for everyone." 

For truth in advertising, what additions to that tag line are needed ? 
(i.e. what qualifying clauses are needed to be added to the end of that sentence.)
