Another ASMR ad, violating my nervous system

Product/Media Review

Some hair slop called Marc Anthony, whose marketing team thinks they have to activate my fight response to tell me about their product during an Amazon show, will now never get a cent of my money even if they invent The Substance but for hair.

Seriously, I try to be cool about my issues. I live in a high-population density area and am often in crowds, I understand not everyone experiences stuff like I do and no one else is responsible for my comfort but me. But I genuinely feel assaulted when I am involuntarily ASMRed when I’m just trying to watch a show or listen to a podcast. Earlier this year a violent encounter with the scentiva ad led me to boycott all Clorox products, which is harder than I would have expected.

Nonconsensual ASMR should be illegal, and I will die on this hill.
