Advertising, by its very definition, is only meant to promote a product. Just turn on your TV, you will see plenty of misleading advertising that's not really illegal.
Ignoring the fact that there are various degrees of misleading, from the mild to the outright fraudulent, are you suggesting that people have no good reason to be disgusted with it because a lot of companies do it?
- mustpax 18y agoDisgusted is too strong a word, but I think people should be bothered. I know I am. I was just trying to draw a parallel between false advertising on the internet by individuals, and false advertising we see through mainstream channels every day. I don't think we should give the latter a free pass because it's been around longer.
