Internet advertisements that pretend to be download buttons, 1 mil. visitor winners, etc. They should be held to a higher standard where they can't falsely advertise.
In theory it allows people to inform their congress(wo)men of what they want to happen without citizens having to drop everything and go to Washington D.C.. That said corporations should be banned from hiring lobbyists.

Private prisons are better in that they can generate their own funding for their facilities, but their fault lies in lobbying.
