I'm reminded of a University paper I wrote for a Technology in Society course on "Advertising in the Information Age". I provided examples of the increasing technological impact of advertising on our lives and concluded this required a correction though strong regulations or even violent revolution (I'd just read Fight Club).
I got an A- on the paper with feedback from the professor that stuck with me. He noted I had focused on solutions to the problem of increased advertising but failed to note that humans are very adaptive and another option is that we all just get used to increased advertising and move on with our lives. I'm thinking the helmet and division ads fall into this. Sure there will be a bit of outrage and bemoaning the ever increasing hold of advertising but most fans will become comfortable with the changes.

I agree. People hate everything and then get used to it and then can't live without it. Talking Movies, Soda in Can. Why would anyone want their profile on the internet? Why would i want to watch tv on my 5 inch phone? This is called the dumb idea paradox.
I'm sure the first time the idea of instant replay was introduced in the 70s people were like, "Why cut away from live action to show me something I just saw! That's stoopid!" Now we wait for the replay and curse if there isn't one.
