They're banned in 4 US states already, with seemingly no infringement on the 1st Amendment.
Legally speaking, the validity of banning billboards tends to be evaluated based on the Central Hudson test. More practically, there's numerous limitations to commercial speech... for example, you can't blare an audio ad from your rooftop.
- tptacek 2y agoBillboards? Banning billboards is fine by me. Banning all advertising is unconstitutional.
- whateveracct 2y agoBanning targeted advertising probably wouldn't be.
- bee_rider 2y agoI’d rather ban the behavior required for targeting (building invasive dossiers on everyday normal people), than the (admittedly annoying) speech.
- whateveracct 2y agoThat's probably about what it'd look like. Some combination of things that make it impossible to profitably advertise the way companies do today.
