Feels a little more nefarious when it's propaganda.

Yeah, that’s it exactly. It’s really not nefarious when it’s an ad for laundry detergent or school supplies.

But you attach politics to it and BOOM - it feels creepy as hell.

I think it is creepy when sophisticated psychological manipulation is used to alter your consumer choices.

It is dishonest. There is no attempt to inform you about new products and technologies you would benefit from. Rather disinformation is used to deceive you as to the necessity or usefulness of their product.
