Stuff you'd see other industries do in the same context.
Like, xsite energy has earned all of this bad publicity, if the energy sector doesn't want it to reflect on all of them, I'm sure the public would be glad to hear about how they've adopted a new policy that will prevent them from working with companies that use graphic sexual imagery as forms of advertising.
It's not the job of a private citizen to look out for the reputation of an entire industry.
Does your industry require you to develop policies about using graphic sexual imagery as promotional material or would the idea of doing that be a natural barrier of entry for you?

So I work on communications strategy with high level clients all the time. If I had a client reach out to me and say I am so mad at this girl I am going to commission these stickers of her... it would be worth my career to stop him or I would quit the file before he had a chance to follow through.
