I admit I have a low tolerance for commercials, but I usually can find a way to avoid them.
Recently, a major corporation strapped me to an uncomfortable chair. Had I tried to get loose, I would have been arrested.
Next, the company put a video screen less than two feet in front of me and played advertisements. The audio was very loud, and I had no way to turn it down.
Sound like something from a thriller novel? No, it really happened.
The name of the corporation: United Airlines.
The ads play at the beginning of the flight, while the seatbelt sign is on.
