Comment on Why aren't advertisers (Microsoft, Facebook, Google) held responsible for allowing scammy adverts?

If someone wants to restrict their services out of willingness it is fine, I just think you can’t be required to do so

It’s not just that, there are laws preventing a lot of stuff (not that it’s not commonly happening anyways). For instance a huge thing was never copying anything with Disney characters in it. It’s not like Disney has a special rule only for them, it’s just that Office Depot knows they’re the ones to sue your ass into dust if you get caught. It’s the same for any copyrighted material if it’s going to be distributed, but OD ignores it for the minor stuff because it’s low risk. We just need to laws to protect us from these malicious practices and then we need them to be enforced.
