Folgar, Juan F.
For example, that advertisement that addresses the issue of dependency that is intrinsic to consumerism. It is about a man who leaves his house and when he realizes he does not have his cell phone, he is completely naked. So he returns home to get it and when he holds it he feels at ease and appears clothed. That is clear proof of technological dependence.
To sum up, consumerism it is a serious problem in society and we as industrials must raise awareness of consumerism and dependence so that there is at least a small consideration for marginalized sectors.
