The vast majority of advertising is laser focused to push women's buttons it's alarming.

Interestingly, I was at the cinema and saw back to back adverts for monitoring where a woman is all the time is coercive control and abuse.

Then an app for a mum to monitor where their adult daughter is at all times as a positive.[1]

Both are abuse AFAIC and that helicopter parenting is encroaching on adulthood is alarming. In sure we'll soon have diaper sizes newborn through 25 years old eventually.

that’s one of the most horrific ads i’ve ever seen. I wonder if an ad like that is allowed outside america?

Speaking of monitoring, your YouTube link has a tracking identifier in it… although it's ?is=, for some reason. Did you type that out manually, or has YouTube changed?
