Taunting the general public. Always a winning move.
That’s some chaotic good shit
Now someone needs to make AR glasses with the sole purpose to detect and blur out ads
More likely that technology will be used to overlay targeted ads
Testing Lemmy comment
It’s like when someone tells me something is unbreakable. It becomes my mission to come up with a way of breaking it.
It’s like the Titanic, it was doomed the moment someone called it unsinkable. No self-respecting universe would let that slide.
Fun fact: The “unsinkable” actually came from its sister Olympic, after it came out relatively unscathed from a collision with the Hawke (Wikipedia link)
Fun fact: Between the 3 ships of the class, Olympic was the only that survived to retirement. Britannic was sunk by a mine in WWI after less than a year in service.
I remember someone got into such a billboard and replaced the ad with IKEA-style instructions on how to replace the ads in those billboards.
Haha now if only they could do it in Times Square. That place is a giant eyesore.
I used to feel bad about using an ad blocker on the internet, but not anymore. I utilize PiHole and uBO for ad blocking now because the internet has literally become unusable without it. I never minded seeing ads, but they have gotten so brazen about it now with the most obnoxious ads possible. When the ads start negatively affecting the usability of the Internet there’s a serious problem. So they can either use respectful ad placement and get some revenue from me, or they can have them blocked and get zero revenue. It’s their choice.
Does anyone know the original ad?
