Sony Graffiti Ads Draw More Anger
Philly.com is running the confirmation that Sony paid a vendor to lease wallspace for their PSP graffiti ads. Philadelphia groups are slamming the ads as affronts to clean urban spaces, and the Licenses and Inspections Department in the city is planning to cite the business owner. From the article: "Jake Dobkin, copublisher of the Gothamist Web site, considers himself a street-art aficionado. He said the Sony campaign hit his SoHo neighborhood in Manhattan a few weeks ago with not only 'dozens' of spray-painted murals but 'hundreds' of posters of the same cutesy youths. He took aim at Sony for trying to dupe people like him. 'It's clearly a large campaign, and deserves a thoughtful, measured response,' he wrote on his blog. 'Here's mine: corporate graffiti sucks.'"
Just go round and spray $sys$ infront of all the adverts.
Complaining won't work. Spraypaint swastikas on the ads, they'll be erased in no time.
(not that they're nazis, but swastikas always get the clean-up crews in action.)
Trolling is a art,
The awful Christmas decorations some people put up look like crap too, but we don't forbid people from putting them up on their own property, do we?
Since when is bad taste illegal?
