The problem with regulating current ad systems is that we are asking company's like Facebook and Google to act as censors, deciding what is acceptable and what is not. Crypto-currencies and the IRA are out but ask-your-doctor drug ads and fast food are in. Corporations are not the people to decide this for the rest of society.
I believe any form of advertising where the recipient has not specifically chosen to view the ad should be considered a rights violation and banned. This would force advertisers to produce ads people wanted to watch. It would also put an end to billboards, TV commercials, banner ads and most kinds of inline ads. Basically everything that is currently foisted upon us against our will. This would be a radical change but it is the only change that could solve the problems we currently face with advertising today.
