There's an interesting titbit in this article by the chief executive of Vale of Glamorgan Council. Their ban on advertising unhealthy foods, rather than leading to a LOSS in revenue, actually BOOSTED it! www.newlocal.org.uk/articles/wel... #Cymru #Wales #ValeOfGlamorgan #AdvertisingShitsInYourHead

Giving this another plug for any #Caerdydd #Cardiff people who want to object to plans for a massive advert screen by Newport Road, for zero public benefit. Let's keep this stuff off our streets! #Adamsdown #Plasnewydd #Roath #AdvertisingShitsInYourHead

This from @openrightsgroup.org is well worth a read on the potential for cookie consent rules in the UK to be softened. Plenty of benefits to advertisers, but huge dangers to consumers concerned with #DataProtection and #privacy. www.openrightsgroup.org/blog/the-fut... #AdvertisingShitsInYourHead

Another good piece about the decision by Cardiff Council to increase regulation of public advertising in #Cardiff #Caerdydd. Lots of good progress has been made, plenty still to do! nation.cymru/news/a-welsh... @adfreecities.bsky.social #AdvertisingShitsInYourHead
