Topic: Should companies be allowed to display ads to children? (Read 130 times)
How far should parents be allowed to go to protect their children from ads?
I think it is possible to show only the advertising of children's goods, but forbidden to show adult ads, such as alcohol
i think that it is not suppose to watch the children. it may hamper their growth.
I also think that watching the children is not necessary, it may hurt their psyche
As you may be aware, on 25th May 2018 the General Data Protection Act was introduced in Europe to allow
individuals select whether they want to be targeted by ads relevant to them or not.
WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW is that before that day, with the introduction of Apple FaceID, three
companies' investment pitch were about "Smart targeting & smart FaceID".
Do you know these moments when you play a smartphone game, a video ad is playing and you're looking away or doing something else?
Start-ups said, "what if we could force people to watch ads through FaceID and stop the video if they are looking
away?". While this isn't in practice today, we are moving towards this practice. Companies are pushing this move.
Imagine the effects on children when forced to look at ads. They will think that ads are something normal and they will consume information
without even noticing it, just like zombies. Should companies be allowed to display ads to children?
