If you have to put on the screen - in writing - that we don't know how a medication works... then maybe we shouldn't advertise it on the TV!

Ban pharmaceutical ads.

How the hell can we market and sell something when we don't even know how it works?!?!?!

What If We Made Advertising Illegal?

What if we banned all advertising? Not regulate it—abolish it. This proposal would transform manipulation machines, and maybe save democracy itself. A thought experiment worth considering.

@pre @mozilla Keeping this separated from my above post because I think you should form your opinion by yourself,

Therefore, contributing data to measure how ads perform (or "attribution", all privacy-preserving it might be), I disabled it.

@SarahDay93 @johannbourquenez Journaliste, ça devrait être un métier...
Quand on voit comment l'info a été vérifiée (non) sur ce monsieur #JohnMastodon et que le journaliste lui invente donc un existence et sa biographie, c'est drôle mais flippant quand même 😨 .
Mais quand on voit le nombre de cookies publicitaires sur le site du "journal" en question, on s'étonne moins que le travail soit bâclé.
