It’s one thing to market to adults, but targeting teens is just plain wrong. Some people might argue that if teens are searching for these hashtags themselves, it's not technically marketing. But we all know how influential social media is, especially on teens. As someone who's seen my friend's kid fall into the vaping trap during high school, I wish this content was more regulated.

Who do you think the target audience of Meta, Google, Apple, Bytedance and Microsoft is ?

Literally everybody, and likely adults more than teens, since adults usually have more money.
