Talk:False advertising/Archives/2020

Modern advertising

“One weird trick to...”

Or any of the other deception methods used by e.g. Outbrain.

It feels like this wiki article is from the 1980’s. Photo bleaching? False coloring? Really?

How about neuro linguistic programming, targeted beats layered to address different audiences simultaneously, timed vocal peak trough intonation on voiceover, tonal note accentuation on placement close, etc. Yes those are hard to get information on. The entire world runs on the internet and the internet runs on advertising. Do you think we want people to get smart and stop consuming?

I work in advertising and believe me, everything in this article is at least 35 years out of date. We have much more insidious ways to con gullible people out of their money today.

Should we add notable and notorious false ad cases worldwide here?

How about adding some notable (and of course) notorious false advertisements from around the world? For example, picking one notable false ad cases and lawsuits in another country (with the exception of the United States because it ALWAYS HAPPENS there)...

And no one but Dannon was fined more than 10 million dollars ($10 million) for false advertising? Just asking. Dannon can/t buy Minuteman missiles Uploaded by me, 8:18 pm in the PH. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ahthga Yram (talk • contribs) 12:18, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
