Making a car without seat belts is against the law. So is spaffing personal data (finally!).

Making a road that doesn't comply with safety standards is against the law (for example without crash barriers or white lines).

The car makers, in this analogy, are the companies creating the advertisements that fill this advertising space. Not the people spaffing data everywhere contrary to the law. Quiet down and take your medicine.
