Gambling and alcohol ads have to be among the most unethical form of marketing in existence, yet, it really is everywhere. These companies (Google/Meta/Twitter) are even showing these ads to minors on an ongoing basis.
I couldn't imagine being an addict or former addict and having to be exposed to this mindfuck.
I would encourage everyone to actively find ways to block ads, even if solely to preserve one's mental health.
Gambling is the one that is so infuriating for me as well, and part of the reason I don't watch sports at all now.
They have sponsored segments IN THE SHOW during the game talking about the current odds and bets that can be placed. In addition to all the signs and ad segments. It is so terrible in Ontario once online gambling ads were legalized.
It's just as if announcers were consuming alcohol or smoking on set with a bottle or pack of it in front of them. Gambling should be illegal or heavily regulated just the same as other addictive substances.
I've seen music videos being re-uploaded with gambling ads inserted into the video (like a character was watching TV/on their computer/looking at their phone, and it was there). I couldn't believe it when I saw it. It's so disgusting, I didn't think people could stoop so low.
Holy fuck, that is horrendous! Do you have any examples you can share/find again?
Found it! It's Forever with Drake
But the original video may have already had the gambling bit. It says "remastered in HD", so I'm not sure if the original also had it or not.
But anyway, it's there. 👎
