I wouldn't mind that, especially wherever behavioural profiling is involved.
You'd call a person wearing a tinfoil hat a crazy, yet we are tolerating what effectively could be considered an effort at mass scale, targeted mind control. It's obnoxious on the less competent end of the spectrum, and an outright violation on the other.
I used to consider advertisements an intellectual equivalent of fast-food; I think it's gone far worse than that, and as individuals, we are poorly equipped to stand up to it. I do understand businesses rely on advertising to stay alive, but without regulation, there just seems to be no end to how much abuse adtech is ready to inflict upon us.
