A$.$ Many people criticize marketing as being manipulative based on the argument that marketing activities create needs where none previously existed. Marketers of SUVs, tobacco products, diet programs, exercise equipment, and luxury products are typically the most criticized. Given what you now know about the differences between needs and wants, do you agree with these critics? Explain.

B$.$ Many consumers and consumer advocates are critical of individualized segmentation approaches due to personal privacy concerns. They argue that technology has made it far too easy to track buyer behavior and personal information. Marketers counter that individualized segmentation can lead to privacy abuses, but that the benefits to both consumers and marketers far outweigh the risks. Where do you stand on this issue? What are the benefits and risks associated with individualized s$$a$$mentation$?$
