I have an intuition that most people would find it less weird to hear a pro-cryonics advertisment from an actual cryonics company than a “Public Service Announcement” from a third party. The former would be processed more like a normal advertisement, to be judged on its merits, while the latter could invite suspicion of the creators’ motives. I might be wrong—anyone from marketing or advertising have something to say here?
