I agree and I also think companies will (or are) going to try more "organic" marketing by going into comments and pretending to be customers and recommend their products.
I thought about that when I went to a new hair salon and in their new customer form one of the questions was "how did you hear about us" and one of the options was Reddit.
I kind of would rather have ads if I had to because they are easier to identify. Now I can't trust people in the Reddit comments.
