    Let’s try that defense for public nudity. People can just choose to not look at it if they don’t like it!

      You are agreeing? Tone on the internet is lost to me.

      The post you replied to is saying that ads can’t “just not be looked at”.

      Same with nudity. You can’t just not look at it. You didn’t even know it was there.

        That’s the point.

        They were making the point that public nudity is illegal even though you can just look away if you don’t agree

        But advertising in public spaces is legal on the basis that you could just look away if you didn’t want to see it

          Oh ok. I can see that perspective now. Thanks for explaining it to me.

          Edit: and upon re-reading the comment several times, I can see that exactly.

          Without tone the same sentence can go anywhere.
