Any way to report ads?
(lemmy.ca)
Using Boost for Lemmy, I got an obvious political ad from the right asking to sign a petition to scrap the gun "ban" in Canada (it's a registry not a ban).
Now I understand this is an ad but I don't appreciate having propaganda from the right injected into my browsing on lemmy. Have better ads, or let us report them.
Just pay for Boost. I'm sure you spend more on coffee.
It's not the point. The point is that those 'ads" are spreading misinformation.
that just comes with the territory at the moment, which is why i either pay for ad removal (one-time payments only), use open source alternatives and use an adblocker.
That’s great for you and all, some of us would like to protect others from the harm this shit causes.
an admirable cause, and i won't stop you. a report button would be great.
but i just avoid them, i stopped trying.
You see the same ones on youtube. Most of them point at Chinese propaganda (epoch times)
The ones I get on YouTube and constantly report are the ones saying the irs or government owes you thousands of dollars and they use like stock footage of celebrities with crappy ai voiceovers to trick people into falling for it.
