Google Ads and What Not

Im personally nowhere near surprised that google has false ads. Advertisement is all over the place and chances are that some things you read will be false information. I understand why people say that "It's disturbing" to get the wrong information with a college app because most kids are already freaking out enough about applying to college but at the same time its kind of expected that potential students should be aware enough to figure out what sites are real.

If people are applying, they should probably know how to tell whether or not the information they're looking at is legitimate. Although it is irresponsible of advertisers to say things that are false. If someone is looking for college, they ARE going to be stressed, and that shouldn't be taken advantage of, but what do we actually expect of people who make ads to receive money.

In society there are always faults. Ads being one of them, I wouldn't worry about it so much, there are more "surprising" things.
