Buildings provide shelter, advertising provides nothing.
Artists who post their work on social media aren’t advertising unless they are also paying to have their posts injected into the feeds of people who don’t follow them.
You’re talking about targeted advertising, buddy. There’s that nitpicking I was talking about, because targeted advertising isn’t the only advertising there is.
I’m not just talking about targeted advertising, I’m also talking about paid preferential treatment on black-box algorithmic social networks.
A business could self-publish its own newsletter and it wouldn’t be advertisement until they start mailing them to people who didn’t sign up for it. If someone follows an artist on social then they have signed up to see those posts.
By that definition, gossip with friends is advertisement too whenever it mentions a business. It’s an excessively broad view of ads, and that’s coming from an enby that won’t play live service games because of the dark patterns inherent to their design.

A self-published newspaper is absolutely an advertisement. So are posts on social media.
Advertising isn’t just pushing things on people who didn’t sign up for it.
