I don't disagree, but I would still argue that it would not work as well. The only way I'd see this working would be with heavy government intervention, and I think the british figure of speech for that is "fat chance".
- amelius 2y agoYes, government should intervene here. But there is another figure of speech that goes like "don't let good be the enemy of perfect" ...
- Dansvidania 2y agowhat would be the "good-not-perfect" solution?
- card_zero 2y agoKeeping it in a designated place, where you have to go to look for it deliberately? Like yellow pages, as suggested? Sounds good to me. When advertising was new, people really liked it. It sold newspapers, it was the thing people wanted before news.
- amelius 2y agoIt probably needs more thought but fines for anyone who does not comply. You will still get ads that slip through, but it can be a good start. I'd also like to point at tobacco commercials which are banned in many countries now. This ban works (it's probably not perfect but I cannot remember seeing such an ad recently, even online).
