Advertising Ethics
Ethics in advertising means a set of moral principles which govern a person's behavior or how the activity is conducted. Basically ethics in advertising play a very vital role. It should be taken very seriously as it is one of the most important part of advertising. Advertising means a set of well defined principles which govern the ways of communication taking place between the seller and buyer.
There are many advertisements made that are unethical and doesn't contain any sorts of logic. Those types of advertisement should not be published whatsoever. Below is a video on some of the advertisements that has been banned.

Unethical advertisements not only ruin the views and opinions of people, but it also makes them feel as though people have really stopped showing sensible things on television. From children to old aged people, everyone is so into technologies these days. So, the advertisements shown anywhere should be ethical and should not contain useless entities. It is really saddening to see that people actually make those type of advertisements that are disgusting and senseless. Everyone has their own opinion as far as things are concerned. The things I like might not be liked by anyone else and the things everyone likes might not be liked by me. But if there is a verdict of enough people on something, it means that thing is genuinely good or bad.
On the video above there is a comment that grabbed my attention. The person comments indirectly saying that how come these advertisements are banned but not Nicki Minaj's video called "Anaconda".
So basically, I think that advertisements should be banned or stated as unethical before publishing so that they don't put a bad impression on the audience and make them blame the entire advertisement industry. The publishers must know the choice of the audience beforehand and they should also have a clear view on the difference between ethical and unethical advertisements. So, the advertisements shown anywhere should be ethical and should not contain useless entities.
