This is just advertising for some shit app.
Did you read the article in the link? The bit about the app (which is not shit) I put in there so people can know what to buy that is not damaging to marine environment . It's to help people know what seafood is sustainably caught or grown, rather than buy what is not so as to not deplete the oceans of endangered species more than it already is. It also helps you know if farmed fish come from polluting businesses. It's not an app you pay for. It's an app you can use if you also care about what industrial fishing practices are doing to marine life. If you want to know more check the Australian Marine Conservation Society.
Just to emphasise, it doesn't matter whether the user needs to pay for an app or not, to be determined advertising.
Just to be clear I'm not saying I think this is advertising. I think theres useful information in the article. However there are inducements that exist in the beginning which certainly is an advertisement, and its obviously part of their campaign, so overall this skates really too close to advertising.
Following Maniacal's comment, maybe you should edit the post to delete the link and go to the website to find the page or similar that is currently linked but without the personal detail.
Hope the changes I've made are more acceptable.
Sorry, that came off as a bit bossy reading it back. Personal information is your choice, not mine of course. For instance plenty of Mastodon users have their personal information up. I just wanted to highlight Maniacal's comment there, but it definitely comes across not how I intended. Sorry.
