I built this website. From scratch. Including the servers.
Arity, Steve Hall from adrants who uses the Norton Personal Firewall just turned on the ad Blocking feature and checked out this website. This screenshot shows what Norton snakeoil in action does.
As you can see, the entire site navigation is gone because of course, each deeper link of adland.tv will contain the blocked "ad-". Not pretty is it?
So, this daft campaign is now in the shopwindows, larger-than-life, on my street. As I passed it with my friend I commented on the poster. He checked them out and said: "When truth spreads? What truth? Are there lies spreading? What are the lies then? What do they mean? I know how AIDS spreads, do they?" he then shook his head and walked on.
Hindight is 20/20. ;)
I didn't list adland up there as I didn't want the 'spotlight' to be on our own little community here but the bigger picture of the damage it can do to communities in general. Of course, now that I see that they removed all of those URL's but they still haven't removed our listing (I've asked them via email several times, as recently as last night even) I regret not posting it up there as that seems the most effective way to get de-listed. Sadly. (the exact opposite happened for our url, two fresh new logins appeared on bugmenot after I made this post. Gaah!)Email public AT bugmenot.com if your site needs to get delisted. Good luck.
aye, like I said on the Studio Muscle blog (the creators of this spoof): *small golf applause*.
Apparantly they had some cow trouble while shooting this ad. ;)
