The images expressed by the ad influence the way people want to look like. It is important to ban some photoshopped pics to keep realistic images as model for healthy lifestyle.

… The use of cosmetics to improve one’s appearance?

… Diet and exercise (you can improve your appearance but not too much?)?

… Cosmetic surgery?

… Cartoon-characters’ figures? Barbie dolls?

… Camera angles (some are definitely more flattering than others) and clothes (ditto).

If we accept the logic for photoshop regulation, in what way would the above not also qualify for, nay require, the same treatment? For the children of course.
