I’ve seen worse ads about perfume
On one hand, I find nothing wrong with the photograph.
On the other hand, I’m sick of fucking OnlyFans spam online, it’s disgusting to see more spam in real life.
Also billboards as a whole can get fucked.
But is it about what’s directly on the billboard, or about what it’s advertising?
Like, Pornhub could make a billboard with nothing risqué on it, but the fact that it’s advertising a porn website would be an issue wouldn’t it?
Maybe not, I’m just curious tbh.
Remember jeans ads from the 90s? Jeans were all they had on!
GUESS!
Not only did the billboard work, but now that news outlets are posting it, with her @ and all, she’s likely getting so much more attention/subs.
Genius.
$5 says the first complaint about the billboard came from the woman herself.
What an incredibly European headline.
This is why I love America, the first amendment is dope.
Edit: It’s hilarious to see the usual Lemmy leftists spazzing out in the replies. A lot of them is just them being made about grooming being banned in certain contexts, but the only thing they’re materially wrong is about the general state of physical displays in America as a whole. The local policies of Florida for example aren’t nationalized, they’re locally specific to the state of Florida exclusively.
Meanwhile the US bans books for being too sexual
The US doesn’t ban shit, individuals hand down mandates to public institutions that then tell them to go fuck themselves.
Not paying attention to anything happening right now, are you?
Oh, I am well aware that people in the US are banning books. There’s a culture war against libraries… but the US, as an institution, doesn’t ban anything. Saying otherwise is disinformation at its finest.
Come to Denmark where we have advertising on busses with full on boobs in full show. It’s advertiseing for breast implants btw
Um, link?
For science, of course.
Who are these people that pay for pornography?
Who are the people who pay for netflix instead of torrenting?
Someone has to.
Environmental activists Global Witness later took over three of the poster sites and transformed them into ‘OilyFans’ billboards, to comment on the pay package of BP chief executive Bernard Looney, whose earnings went from £4.5 million (€5.2 million) to £10 million (€11.6 million) last year.
Good bit
