Amazon Tests Limits for Showing Cartoons and Ads


In order to protect children from undo influence from commercials while watching cartoons, the FCC established rules for showing commercials. No such rules exist for streaming content over the Internet. Amazon is about to test the limits, see - Amazon tests boundaries for advertising toys online . Cartoons will be shown alongside banners promoting toys. I don't like this idea. I can already hear the arguments between parents and their children. I just hope a lot of Amazon managers have small children.
