Personally, I am way more bothered by product placement than outright advertising. If I'm going to be fucked with - excuse me I mean "targeted" by marketers willing to exploit weaknesses in my human nature to get me to buy stuff I don't need with money I don't have before discarding the packaging onto a planet that can't take it, I prefer the tactics to be overt and conspicuous. And as a maker, the idea of a sponsor dictating what goes in the frame is even worse than that of some network hack telling me to cut the best material in order to appeal to the lowest common denominator. There have to be other ways to make work sustain-ably.
