Parents.of teenagers, the BeReal app is advertising cigarettes to your children. My 17 year old son, at breakfast this morning, showed me an ad for Newport cigarettes for $11.05 per pack. Please monitor your children’s online activities!

      Well, internet is not spme ether. Websites are owned by legal entities registered within certian jurisdictions to do business.

      Presumably bereal is regiatered within US and subject to US law thay it is currently violating.

      A report within app is a start, them report it to attorney general office in your state with proper evidence…

      Screenshots and proper outline of facts so an state attorney can work with it.

      Granted US is corpo dystopia but if peoppe did this more maybe it would be less so.

        Doesn’t matter where you’re registered, if you’re selling your services in a country you have to follow the laws of that country.

        I don’t know if advertising cigarettes is illegal in the US or not.
