>Where would you draw the line?

At paying platforms to advertise your product.

How about typing "insert product here" into a search engine?

>Would consumers be allowed to recommend products to each other?

Yes, as long as there is nothing of value changing hands.

>What about design and product packaging?

Take my suggestions with a grain of salt, because they come from a person who ranks advertising as one of the top three problems facing humanity.




>How about typing "insert product here" into a search engine?

But new products don't show up in search engines.
