advertising distortions

Advertising distortions occur when ads present exaggerated or misleading information about a product or service to influence consumer perception and encourage purchases. These distortions can involve overstating benefits, hiding drawbacks, or creating false impressions to make a product seem more appealing than it truly is. While advertising aims to persuade, distortions can lead consumers to make decisions based on incomplete or false impressions, affecting their trust and understanding of the actual value or quality of what's being promoted.
