I :-) This Campaign
Banksy once expressed something about how big companies are allowed to cover the city in eye-catching images, but individual citizens are not. Here's an interesting way of bridging the gap, courtesy of the Wooster Collective: a campaign where people put stickers on advertising posters saying what they think about them. See some examples here.

That is interesting. Perhaps more people should get together and jointly purchase billboards and so on. I suppose it would be horribly expensive...perhaps an arts organization? I would love to see a city overrun with art, and not that wannabe tagger stuff. I love Banksy. So good.
I once saw a billboard taken out by a trade union, telling us not to buy from a certain company because they'd just laid off all their British workers.
I'd certainly like to see more billboards put to a 'public interest' use. Sticking paintings on them would be great. Imagine if some multi-millionair did that instead of buying their third yatch...
