It would be if every other product didn't do the same thing. The only things it advertises for me are the "off" button on the TV remote, and Bittorrent.
Every other product doesn't do the same thing. Think of a commercial for Lucky Charms. That commercial is actively trying to promote the product to kids, making it seem like they'll have fun if they eat it or something. Now, this commercial isn't trying to promote anything. It's just being weird so it'll stay in your mind.
