Agreed. Instead of expecting a for-profit company to decide what’s ok we should simply pass laws that makes advertising to people under 18 illegal.
For instance if your social media account says you are less than 18 then it should be illegal to show any ad to you.
This will have the additional benefit of internet communication technology companies having to rethink kids as a profit center.
- cj 6y agoBanning advertising to kids under 18 is a pretty interesting idea. You obviously can't completely ban it, since kids under 18 would still have access to cable TV, and therefore advertisments. But I could see a system where -targeting- kids under 18 would be banned, whereas advertising as a whole is not illegal for < 18 so long as the advertisements kids are seeing aren't specifically targeted only at minors.
