@PaulaToThePeople This is nothing different than "surveillance capitalism" as defined by Shoshana Zuboff. Capitalism leads to fascism under certain circumstances, both are very compatible. Ads, more ads etc., is not "hyper capitalism", just basic capitalism. Capitalism is bad enough and current forms of fascism are using it very naturally and very efficiency.

There seems to be a lot of confusion about Zuboff's phrase. As I understand it, what it's referencing is that surveillance used to be a state function, and business people had as much incentive as anyone else to criticise and limit it. Then surveillance advertising was invented, and state-corporate surveillance merged by the Patriot Act, PRIMS, etc.
