I wish there was a good legal way to punish people who make bad ads. Maybe we need some sort of consumer collective to organize boycotts?

  "Bad" isn't the issue. It could be a perfectly "good" ad (whatever that means), and I still don't want to see it. Stop shoving it in my face. (If you define "bad" as "in a context where ads should not be", I think I agree with you.)

    Yeah, I mean both in content and context. If people could organize to they extent that one of the worst offenders' businesses would be metaphorically burned to the ground once a year, I think that would have an effective deterrent effect.

      That's inadequate. You're just burning to the ground a corporate shell from which the profits have already been removed. Instead, jail the person behind it.
