I agree that this is the advertisers right to use the non-acceptantce terms they want. However it is still a pressure on the user. The user might need the money and become a complete sellout, or they would abstain from talking about matters they wanted to talk about, which would overall decrease the value of STEEM. The simple possibility of that happening on steem is unacceptable to me. I don't want to see users being bought out by companies, and the steem blockchain supporting it.

If advertisers are going directly to users, then that's not part of the blockchain protocol. And if a user decides to sell out to pressure from an advertiser, then that's on them and there's nothing that we can do about it. It's really a non-issue regarding the other forms of advertising via the auction and distribution model.
