Make it a legal requirement to mark paid promotions and anyone found to be doing paid promotions without marking it is at risk of huge fines.
I recall that in the UK, TV programs are already required to do this.

The ASA rules also apply to instagram, but enforcement is necessarily sparse:

Not even a fine, just kick them off Instagram. For an influencer that’s their entire life gone in one move

It is already a requirement by the ASA to clearly label ad posts on Instagram too.
