Instead of gross censorship, see what they do.

Is the campaign effective? Are production values up to snuff"? Who are the (ahem) target audiences? Are those audiences the same as 5 yrs. ago? What "outlets" are carring the news/ads/campaigns? Heavens, what are the issues, and have they changed?

I should think you would be interested. But that's the big problem with prohibitionism: You convert people to enemies, then you lose respect them, then you suppress them.
