Suggestive Image Search Ads

Terra's Ad for Parental Controls Will Steal Your Innocence

— June 28, 2014 — Marketing
These ads for Terra Parental Controls show a variety of images that look quite naughty, but they're really quite innocent objects that just happen to look very suggestive.

This includes absolutely everything like fruits, vegetables, landscapes, keyboard symbols and even letters from the alphabet that sort of look like parts of the male and female body in the right light. Although some of the objects might not conjure up dirty thoughts on their own, with all of these images placed side by side, it's pretty hard not to start seeing things that you shouldn't. As the Terra ads sum up nicely, if you've taken a good look at these ads, your innocence has already been stolen, but it doesn't mean that a child's should have to be.
