this has always felt like such a tremendous cope by the advertising industry, i'm not gonna fucking pay for a thing because i heard about it negatively, i'm going to actively avoid it because i've heard this precisely thing being repeated since i was a toddler and i want the higher ups to have to wipe their ass with a one-dollar bill instead of a 20-dollar bill.

Would your decision change if the ‘negative thing’ was “this product remains the same and just changed its name back”? It feels like a really strong response, is all. Brand recognition goes a long way, too
