Log on to Facebook or Twitter to complain about misleading Ads

Errant advertisers could face more heat from industry watch dog Advertising Standards Council of India (ASCI), which has jumped on the social networking bandwagon, encouraging youths to speak out against questionable campaigns through its Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Within a month of making its debut on Facebook and Twitter, ASCI has already received ten times more complaints against advertisements than the earlier average of 15-20 complaints from individuals and industry against 12 advertisements in a month.

“By being on the social networking sites, ASCI is targeting the youth who are very active on such platforms to come up and register comments or complaints against advertisements and thus help in regulating the industry,” ASCI General Secretary Allan Collaco told PTI.

He said the response on ASCI’s Facebook and Twitter account has been very encouraging so far.

    Greetings from Los angeles! I’m bored to tears at work so I decided to check out your site
    on my iphone during lunch break. I love the information you provide here and
    can’t wait to take a look when I get home. I’m surprised at how quick your blog loaded on my mobile ..
    I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyways, good site!

    Hmm it looks like your blog ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum
    it up what I submitted and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
    I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to the whole thing.

    Do you have any suggestions for first-time blog writers?
    I’d really appreciate it.

    Wonderful blog! I found it while browsing on Yahoo News. Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed in Yahoo News?
    I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get
    there! Thank you

    You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this
    topic to be actually something that I think I would never understand.
    It seems too complex and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the
    hang of it!

  12. Diana says:

    When someone writes an article he/she keeps
    the image of a user in his/her brain that how a user can know it.
    So that’s why this article is outstdanding.
    Thanks!

    Yesterday, while I was at work, my cousin stole
    my apple ipad and tested to see if it can survive a 25 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views.
    I know this is totally off topic but I had to share it
    with someone!
