Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
The laws seem to have dealt with the worst cases and I would hope that the application of current laws continue to deal with current and future offenders!. Of course it should be regulated!. If you bought something that said it was a television and turned out to be an empty box you would not want someone to smugly say "Oh well, it is better than having laws regulating them to tell the truth!."Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's all deceiving, but it's not flat out lying to you, so you cannot say much bad about it!. People need to use common sense with it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It should be yes, but it never will be!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Advertising is deceitful, yes, but it should not be regulated!. "Caveat Emptor!."

As far as you are aware it is deceitful, you will approach it cautiously, and thus will be much less likely to be swindled!. If a consumer makes the wrong choice, it is the consumer's fault, perhaps partially the producer's fault for making an inferior product, but not the advertiser's fault!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
