My opinion is advertisement must not be band. Because in advertisements there are some bad advertisements and also some good advertisements. But we can learn from both. Even by watching bad advertisements we can know about the product or thing. So that we can allot from it.
By watching advertisements we come to know about all the products that are in the market, about the new technology has replaced the existing one. Important thing is that we can know how to use the product.
So advertisement should not be banned. Thank you.

Advertisements are very important, because the customers should know how the product would be and what is the use of it, everything can be known by the advertisements. The companies may be present far away from the people then how the people can go and get the details ? from the advertisements right. So advertisements are important.

Advertisements mislead children showing the false photo's and print the text in small format so no one bother to read it. Many children become aggressive to get just convinced by the false photo. So advertisements mislead children.

Advertisement laws should be tighter. Some advertisements trick people illegally in buying their goods, like on television, small print and actual prices are sometimes shown too fast, and we cannot read them. Sometimes, small print says "refer to www.--.com for terms and conditions. " and most of the disclaimers are there. It rather cheats people into thinking. Do you know, sometimes there is this ad ask or search. snapdo that "you are the 100, 000 visitor!" or "This is not a joke! you are our hundredth visitor! click this. " The way to know whether this is a scam is to open the same website three four or five times, if this ad appears again, it's a scam.

No I don't think advertisements should be banned as they are the main source of making the people aware about certain things. They are the best, fastest, and cheaper mode of connecting through various products.

Advertisement and marketing has became essential part for not only for profit organisation but also for non profit organisation. Without advertisement both consumer and organisation will suffer as consumers may not be aware about companies latest product, services or any discount policies. Mere because some of the advertisers cheated consumer it doesn't make any sense for banning it. Also consumer needs to be cautious about company's brand equity, its past performance etc.

Advertisement plays an important role in promotion of products of a company. A advertisement will become a meaningful if a enterprise follow some ethics, a company can enjoy more profit with out ethics for lesser time. Following ethics make a enterprise faithful than a successful one.

Advertisement make people know about products. To some extent nature itself advertises her wares, for instance, the colour and smell of flowers is nothing but advertisement to attract the attention of insects and birds and the promise of honey is the gift. So ads are good.

Advertisement mislead the public.
They claim discount but actually there is no discount. They increase the price and then comes to the actual price.
And they say buy 1 and get 1 free. Nothing like that actually happens they double the price of one item and then give you two.
In food the add fillers in order to increase the weight.
And you all have experienced this at least once. How do you feel when and great actor on TV. Opens a packet of chips and pick up one from the top and eat but when you buy the same packet of chip you need to dig your hand in the packet and then one chip.

Wow, just saw an advert on TV "Text Cheat and yours and your partners names to find out if he/she is cheating on you!" How in the world does that work? and how can that be legal? This is completely false and gives you a computer generated number at random. If that is not misleading, please tell me what is? They are preying on the weak minded in order to make money.
