Explanation / Answer

the least concern has been regarding parental authority.Companies are advertising about guns and encouraginga culture in young children everywhere. Children read magazines,watch television,get exposed to things in school which obviously draws their attention towards these advertisments. Parents can stop their children from viewing such advertisements. Companies are responsible in every way about the harm caused by their products even if they aware of it or neglecting it. Its a business for them and they spend millions on advertisements and inculcating this culture to entice children to use their products. They are least concerned about the effects on society and its children.Gun companies have spent millions of dollars to put their recruitment strategies into action, either directly or through the shooting sports foundation and other organizations. The support takes many forms. Even if there is no negligence, however, public policy demands that responsibility be fixed wherever it will most effectively reduce the hazards to life and health inherent in defective products that reach the market. It is utilitarian in nature as ethics states that a person's act is morally right if and only if it produces the best possible results in that specific situation. The cost of an injury and the loss of time or health may be an overwhelming misfortune to the person injured, and a needless one, for the risk of injury can be insured by the manufacturer and distributed among the public as a cost of doing business. This is the basic human right to be done in public interest and the manufacturer is responsible for any harm or risk caused. Under EU law, personal data can be collected only under strict conditions and for a legitimate purpose. The main component of the EU data protection law is the Data Protection Directive 1995/46/EC.In the US, there is no all-encompassing law regulating the collection and processing of personal data. Instead, data protection is regulated by many state and federal laws. the tagline indicates puffery.supposedly harmless use of superlatives and subject praise in advertisements.
