Any way to report ads?
(lemmy.ca)
Using Boost for Lemmy, I got an obvious political ad from the right asking to sign a petition to scrap the gun "ban" in Canada (it's a registry not a ban).
Now I understand this is an ad but I don't appreciate having propaganda from the right injected into my browsing on lemmy. Have better ads, or let us report them.
What's crazy is that a lot of times these ads don't even lead to real petitions. They lead to email capture forms which then opt the submitter into email advertising and grifting campaigns. That type of scam was very popular on Facebook just a couple of years ago. Facebook cracked down on it a little, but there are still plenty of examples in the wild.
