Also, all those brands of shampoo are owned by one or two firms.

I've just realized that this is much like having multiple identities.

A way to deceive market reputation mechanisms.

Should be made illegal, there should be one main brand seen on everything, then whatever secondary brand they want is possible, but you should clearly see that those 3 niche-optimized goods are from one corp.

So that the choice were, eh, real.
