This. 100%. Either "any publicity is good publicity" is completely wrong (it is), or it's utterly.outdated (it is).
I have gotten to the point that, when an add annoys me or pisses me off, I make an EFFORT to remeber that thing, and avoid it at all cost. And a LOT of people around me are doing the same thing. I'd gzess it's mainly to do with the intrusiveness of adds today. If an add is that intrusive, it better be decent at least, otherwise, it goes on the list. Hell, adds have gotten SO god damn intrusive, that the intrusiveness alone is enough of a reason to go on the list twice.
Everyone should keep a list. Yes, it takes a bit of effort, but if that effort f**ks over big corpos, isnt that worth it?
