In many countries (including Canada and a lot of Europe), it is illegal to market drugs to consumers who can't actually buy them (because they are only available by prescription). This kind of marketing is really a problem in the US, because the reason they're prescription drugs is that only trained professionals are supposed to know enough to be able to decide whether to use them.Pharmaceutical ads!
We just don't have those. I thought they might be illegal here (like alcohol ads), so I checked. Nope. We just don't have them.
Honestly I think this is a post-9/11 thing. Government installations in particular changed radically, and security went up everywhere.Zander said:ID. Yes, every country in the world issues ID (though lots of people especially in developing nations don't have any), but in the US, you're asked for it all the time so people normally have some outside their home. Want to buy a drink even though you're obviously of legal age? ID, please. Want to pay for something by credit card? ID, please. Want to enter many office blocks in US cities? ID, please. Inhale? ID, please. Exhale? ID, please. Blink? ID, please. You get the idea.

Some of my friends from the island kingdom have commented on how entertaining our ads are. To me, the ads are better than the show that's on (but that may be due to my attention span).
