D) none of the choices.

Explanation:

A false and misleading advertisement provides false information about their products to the consumers, e. g. if you drink our coffee you hair will grow back.

Impermissibly vague and general refers to certain laws that are so unspecific that they can be interpreted in too many different ways, it doesn't refer to advertisement campaigns.

A deceptive half-truth advertisement would include a deceptive statement that includes some true element, e. g. we use natural spring water to produce our coffee, but they forget to say that they use tap water since it comes from natural springs.
