What should be especially illegal is those ads that use "alert" sounds. Door knocks/bells, phone rings, and worst of all, fucking car horn and other alarm noises.

Anything beeping or sounding like a siren should be completely forbidden for safety reasons.

It’s literally the non-verbal equivalent of the classic “crying fire in a crowded theatre” scenario, it should already be illegal by existing law imo.

“Honking horn at the operator of high speed multi-ton machine on their radio” seems pretty clear cut recklessness in my book.
