> but there's nothing inherently immoral about advertising.

That's debatable or at least strongly depends on your definition of advertising.

moral advertisment could in my opinion only tell a person about something when they actually need that thing.

For example telling the person what kind of options are available if a person needs to travel from x to y.

Any other form eventually ends right where we are right now, with with scientists and psychologists trying to figure out how to manipulate people into doing things they wouldn't otherwise.
