How Disney's Targeted Advertisements Implicate
IT’A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL: HOW DISNEY’S TARGETED ADVERTISEMENTS IMPLICATE COPPA Gianna Korpita1 I. Introduction The mission of the Walt Disney Company (“Disney”) is “to be one of the world’s leading producers and providers of entertainment and information.”2 Disney is ranked as one of the world’s top ten most powerful brands and is certainly living up to that statement.3 With 1B.S. Business Administration, Boston University, 2012; J.D. Suffolk University Law School, 2019; Served as the 2018-2019 Editor-in-Chief of Suffolk University Law School’s Journal of High Technology Law. 2See About the Walt Disney Company, THE WALT DISNEY CO. (2017), archived at https://perma.cc/59RG-TB2G [hereinafter About] (stating the company’s mission to development the most creative and profitable entertainment experiences in the world). To achieve this mission and be profitable, Disney strives to be creative and innovative in their content, services, and consumer products. Id.; see also Rafiq Elmansey, Disney’s Creative Strategy: The Dreamer, The Realist and The Critic, DESIGNORATE (2017), archived at https://perma.cc/QB87-YDEY (highlighting that “[i]n a way, Disney’s chosen medium of expression, the animated film, characterizes the fundamental process of all genius: the ability to take something that exists in the imagination only and forge it into a physical existence that directly influences the experience of others in a positive way.”). One of the advantages of Disney’s creative strategy method is balancing between both dream and reality to build a viable layout. Id. 3See Julien Rath, The 10 Most Powerful Brands in the World, BUS.

Early Enterprises... Walt Disney was born on December 5, 1901 in Chicago Illinois, to his father Elias Disney, and mother Flora Call Disney. Walt had very early interests in art, he would often sell drawings to neighbors to make extra money. He pursued his art career, by studying art and photography by going to McKinley High School in Chicago. Walt began to love, and appreciate nature and wildlife, and family and community, which were a large part of agrarian living. Though his father could be quite stern, and often there was little money, Walt was encouraged by his mother, and older brother, Roy to pursue his talents. Walt joined the Red Cross and was sent overseas to France, where he spent a year driving an ambulance and chauffeuring Red Cross officials. Once he returned from France, he wanted to pursue a career in commercial art, which soon lead to his experiments in animation. He began producing short animated films for local businesses, in Kansas City. By the time Walt had started to create The Alice Comedies, which was about a real girl and her adventures in an animated world, Walt ran out of money, and his company Laugh-O-Grams went bankrupted. Instead of giving up, Walt packed his suitcase and with his unfinished print of The Alice Comedies in hand, headed for Hollywood to start a new business. The early flop of The Alice Comedies inoculated Walt against fear of failure; he had risked it all three or four times in his life. Walt's brother, Roy O. Disney and Walt borrowed an additional $500, and set up shop in their uncle's garage.

Ch 1. a Tour of the New Means of Consumption
1 A Tour of the New Means of Consumption Disney’s World 2 The New Means of Consumption 6 Cathedrals of Consumption 7 Overview of the Cathedrals of Consumption 9 Franchises and Fast-Food Restaurants 9 Chain Stores 10 Shopping Malls 10 Electronic Shopping Centers 12 Discounters 14 Superstores 15 Cruise Ships 16 Casino-Hotels 17 Entertainment Aimed at Adults 18 Eatertainment 19 Other Means of Consumption 20 Conclusion 22 1 2—— Enchanting a Disenchanted World e consume many obvious things—fast food, T-shirts, a day at Walt WDisney World—and many others that are not so obvious—a lecture, medical service, a day at the ballpark. We consume many goods and services that we must have in order to live and more that we simply want or think we need. Often we must go to particular settings to obtain these goods and services (although, as we will see, more and more of them are coming to us). This book is concerned with those settings: home-shopping television, shop- ping malls, online shopping sites, fast-food restaurants, theme parks, and cruise ships, to name a few. Unlike many treatments of the subject of consumption, this is not a book about the consumer1 or the increasing profusion of goods and services.2 Rather, it is about the settings3 that allow, encourage, and even compel us to consume so many of those goods and services. The settings of interest will be termed the new means of consumption. These are, in the main, locales that came into existence or took new forms after the end of World War II and that, building on but going beyond earlier settings, dramatically trans- formed the nature of consumption.

When guests get hungry, more than 300 places to dine await them across the resort, rang- ing from fast casual to fine dining. Guests are often surprised (and delighted) to discover that the resort has more sommeliers than any other company in the world!
