I know this is controversial, and imperfect, but the longer this crap continues the more right I feel about this as a solution:

What if we taxed advertising? https://matthewsinclair.com/blog/0177-what-if-we-taxed-adver...

It would have to be an incredibly tiny tax, no?

Now we’re into a conversation about degree, and not principle. Yes, it could be small, applied like a sales tax a percentage of the spend on advertising. The idea would be to create a price disincentive to do it. Ultimately, it’s a form of digital pollution, so the less we have of it the better (in my view).
