| superryo said: All the people complaining about this should complain about every infomercial and commercials out there in the states... especially every one with a celebrity endorsement. It's not like any of them really endorse the product because they 100% believe in it. And in the case where the rules to get your $3 per 1000 impression and you cannot say anything bad about the product... hmmm duh! why would ANY company pay for advertising of their products to be bashed. I don't think you can name ANY video game company who would or for that matter ANY company at all who would be stupid enough to pay for advertisement where someone would say their product sucks. |
1. You are told at the begining of an infomercial that it's a paid advertisement. These YouTubers were told NOT to disclose this.
2. "The revised Guides also make it clear that celebrities have a duty to disclose their relationships with advertisers when making endorsements outside the context of traditional ads, such as on talk shows or in social media." That means that unless they are in a regular advertisement (TV, Radio, Print) they must say that they are being paid to endorse a specific company or product.
3. Nobody is saying that they can't pay Youtubers to advertise. But they need to disclose that they are paying people to do so.
Bet with Adamblaziken:
I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
