How more simple and spelt out does it need to be? Did you buy it with your own money? Unless the answer is ‘yes, here’s my receipt’. Then it’s an ADVERT, if it has been gifted, a freebie, part of a press pack, paid for as an advert, or delivered to th p o box, all equal ADVERT. In big letters at the start of the copy.
Those whinging that ‘literally everything will be labelled ad’ yes, yes it will, if everything you peddle is an ad then it should be shown to all the viewers.
They are absolutely shitting themselves that once they have to be transparent about how much of their content is done to try to con viewers out of hard earned cash, people will turn them off, unsubscribe and not follow their fake scammer lives!
