Is it really a shame??

"It's a shame that the people who are listening to you the most are only interested in you because they want you and your peers to buy their product."

Although the intention of these close listeners may be for their own fortune, does their intention really matter? Yes, they want us to buy their products but it is our own decision to actually buy it. It is also our decision to give into marketing. People listen to us to find our interests to promote products that may in fact benefit us, so who really cares if their intentions aren't just to have a pleasent conversation with us. Plus, this statement is more of opinion than factual because there really is no way to know that the most interested of listeners are these people in marketing.
