Alert: Dangerous Ad - Need Ad Reporting Feature
I saw a Suicide Prevention advertisement on August 23rd, 2023.
This advertisement is triggering and dangerous to those sensitive to suicide. As a survivor and the family member of those who have died by suicide, this advertisement as it is formatted (one friend gets a gun and locks himself in the room, the other friend pleading with him not to do it. It ends on the assumption that the person is dying) will send more people into suicidal psychiatric crisis than it will help.
Please have this advertisement removed immediately and have sensitivity reviews of future content like this.
Also consider implementing a feature that allows viewers to report advertisements such as is available on other platforms. This was the only method I could find to report this.
Hi there,
Sorry to hear you've encountered an inappropriate ad - we definitely would like to reassure you that there is a feature to report ads you deem inappropriate:
- Click on the settings cog in the bottom right of the video player
- Select Report Playback Issue
- You will see the option "Advertisement is offensive or inappropriate."
Thank you for taking the time to report this.
