IMHO that kind of advertisement business should be plain illegal. There are parts of it which are cheating, ultimately aimed at plausible deniability for "pay to be recommended" stuff. And what's not cheating there, is something worse - commercial surveillance.

Advertisement relates to competition for customer's attention the same way as lying relates to competition for listener's approval. It's just harmful.
