Identify two examples of persuasive advertising that might have gone too far with their messages. Argue why you believe these messages crossed the line between effective persuasion, under unfair and deceptive trade practices in Advertising as a Contract Basis for Product Liability. Provide support for your response.
Answer:
Product advertising is done with the objective of persuading
customers to consume the product by providing useful information
about what it contains and its benefits (Azcuenaga, 1997). However,
an unfair and deceptive practice may arise when the producer uses
misleading information and misrepresents the nature and the quality
of a product with the aim of inducing customers to consume the
product.
For example, Johnson & Johnson Company’s advertisement of their
drug product compared the characteristics of the drug to those of a
similar American Home Product drug but left out some important
details on the side effect of the drug (Sobel, 1987). In another
example, there is a case where a Village Ford Automobiles sales
person Fred Galaraza failed to place a price sticker on a car and
Ronald the customer ended up purchasing the car more than it was
worth as he was deceived by Fred who showed him other cars that
were actually dissimilar to the one sold (Jeeva, 2016). Ronald
thereafter learned he had been deceived and contacted the company
management who denied, citing that the car was worth that
much.
The second example represents a deceptive trade practice which went
beyond persuasive advertising by the fact that the company failed
to disclose the actual cost of the car and to influence the buyer
and ended up exploiting him. An Illinois appeal court awarded
Ronald the amount he had been charged above the value of the car
(Jeeva, 2016). The first example, on the other hand, qualifies to
be an application of unfair persuasion because Johnson &Johnson
Company provided misleading information through omission of side
effect details, and the drug could, therefore, pose a health risk
upon consumption (Sobel, 1987).

The world’s 3 billion-plus smartphones emit the kind of data that health authorities covet during outbreaks.

But gaining access to this data, even amid a global pandemic, is made complex by the legal and ethical issues surrounding government access to information that can reveal intimate details about citizens’...
