    Yikes, imagine conflating corporate advertising with freedom… Is this why companies hold so much power over us?

      I expect you’d have a rather different stance if it was advertising for something you enjoy in life that was being singled out and banned.

      It’d be very different if it was a blanket ban on all advertisement in these contexts, but it isn’t. It’s the government trying to decide what people eat.
