This is rather chilling. Your afterlife now has ads! And your thoughts have been directly meddled with by advertisers.
I totally understand what you said about people growing up thinking copyright is everything. My first fandom was Dragonriders of Pern, where for a long time fanfic wasn't allowed, RP could only exist within strict guidelines, and people did get in trouble for stepping outside the lines wrt fanart. It's more relaxed now, but Dragonriders fandom of the late 90's existed under the specter of the omniscient suing powers of the copyright gods. :P
