You have a keen eye, and are on the right track. This form of manipulation is disgusting, and should be made totally illegal. There needs to be a way for us, the common man, to end this form of tyranny before we lose all our freedoms. I fear that all out war may be our only option to get our freedom back, but then we would be the terrorists. But hey the grass roots movement of the colonies formed America, so we may be on the cusp of a new revolutionary war to form a world without this gross form of manipulation.
