I guess even someone with most hardcore anti-regulation views would most likely approve of (and quite likely, support) education, including being upfront about all the unsavvy bits and dangers.

They should have. Want to help fund an ad to educate the public?

No. I pay taxes and it is government's job to stop scams at this scale. Whether the government works effectively or not is a different debate.

Certain products are banned from advertising already, my opinion does not matter here.

That's because the non scammers don't have any incentive to run superbowl ads, because we're not running casinos.
