Some ads are presumably responsibly implemented and for decent products



And by some you mean nearly all. At least the ones that sustain the "important" parts of our Internet (Google, Facebook, news media, etc.)


Facebook forces some sanity into the form, but not into the content. As for the rest, no, most ads (especially on news media sites) are neither reasonably implemented nor for decent products. Products that are advertised are not the ones best for you, but the ones the company will make most money off.
