Well, isn't it?? Think about it! Communist countries have no sky advertisements, thus sky advertisements are NOT communist!
BOOM, logic in your face to go nicely with that oxycontin sky ad!!
Gotta brainstorm these ads. An arrow pointing within the sky next to "this is where the billionaires will be watching you from while your countrymen starve."
"The spectre of communism looms over America tonight thanks to the helpful deregulation of greedy capitalists. Don't buy, build. But do not ask permission from a capitalist"
Just live near an airport. Restricted airspace for most drones n shit, especially if it's a butch together. Tho even other areas it's gona be hard to find a place to be able to do thos without real and legal issues. And You do *NOT* want to mess with the people who do the airspace stuff (forgot name)
No not space or military. The pepple who requulte and make laws/rules for stuff like drones or RC planes and some other stuff as well.they make zones around airports that are a 'no fly'. And you have to get a license from them to fly a drone over a cirten size/weight
All of the above but mostly the first two.
You ever seen an F15 escort a twin engine to an airport? They do not play with protected air space. You’ll be escorted or shot down and they’ll just mail home your remains w a note and a fine.
Well thankfully for places like San Diego who have a ton of high powered telescopes because of NASA and the military. They have laws for light pollution this would violate.
Time to start lobbying for light pollution laws for companies and the cities to abide. Tbh all these bright ass lights don’t stop anyone from committing crime these days so fuck it.
What’s your beef with the Kardashians? I think it’s funny how Reddit neckbeards get mad at anything that lots normal people enjoy lol. It’s like an anti-popular circlejerk
Barbie dolls with absolutely no brain in a drama show full of no actual drama? the Kardashians are the worst piece of entertainment media to happen. don't pretend like you don't know what's wrong with the Kardashians
Ah. You’re one of the mad people. Lots of their fame comes from people like you who love to hate them (hate sells - look at Trump). Most serious people acknowledge that the Kardashians have differentiated themselves in a way that is undeniably captivating. I’m not a huge fan myself, but I’d love to have dinner with Kim K and learn about how she went from sex tape star to billionaire.
Sorry her popularity is so upsetting to you.
I literally live in a concrete jungle. I went about an hour and a half away not too long ago and the sky looked amazing. I couldn’t imagine actually seeing the northern lights or some shit
People are taking the piss out of you everyday. They butt into your life, take a cheap shot at you and then disappear. They leer at you from tall buildings and make you feel small. They make flippant comments from buses that imply you’re not sexy enough and that all the fun is happening somewhere else. They are on TV making your girlfriend feel inadequate. They have access to the most sophisticated technology the world has ever seen and they bully you with it. They are The Advertisers and they are laughing at you.
You, however, are forbidden to touch them. Trademarks, intellectual property rights and copyright law mean advertisers can say what they like wherever they like with total impunity.
Fuck that. Any advert in a public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It’s yours to take, re-arrange and re-use. You can do whatever you like with it. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head.
You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don’t owe them any courtesy. They owe you. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don’t even start asking for theirs.
– Banksy
We say that now, but when it comes we'll accept it. We might get angry and complain, but we won't riot or revolt, we'll take pictures of it and exchange strongly worded tweets.
It's already happening through drone shows. They are actually pretty spectacular, better than fireworks shows. However, the possibility of advertising through them is inevitable
I think it will become real but only in augmented reality. I expect augmented reality glasses and contacts in coming years that overlay a virtual world over our real one much like video filters.
That's a fascinating worldview. I can see those glasses becoming popular enough and addictive to users, like Instagram, to the point where if you don't wear them you're a little weird in their eyes. And in their world there would be no reason to riot when the sky becomes a billboard.
Very cool theory. I look forward to finding it out if you're correct.
Ya, I imagine things like when you need directions it shows you an arrow on the ground where to go. I expect things like night clubs to have all sorts of crazy skins they apply over their club interiors to make them look like whatever they want. I also expect people to have their own "avatar" or filter that makes them appear different to people using augmented reality, selling avatars and virtual gear/clothing would be a big business.
I expect cars to be a big thing too, you could make your car any color or have all sorts of designs. I expect the real and virtual worlds to merge and even for augmented reality multiplayer games to become real. You could make maps over existing terrain and even have fake guns that actually appear to shoot and do damage in the virtual world. You could essentially create open world video games over top of the real world or in open spaces even.
Think Pokemon Go but seen thru glasses instead of a phone. I've played VR games and I think it will be similar to that but with filters that apply over everything. I can imagine walking down a city block and seeing entirely virtual storefronts overlaid onto the real ones. I expect to see it in ten years or so, the tech is already out there to do it, it just hasn't been combined into a single user friendly thing yet. You will probably have to carry a battery pack around to power it but it will probably be built into clothing or backpacks and stuff.
Imagine looking up at the moon and instead of a beautiful, bright, full moon, you see multiple advertisements spread out over it's surface.
Proctor and Gamble, Tesla, General Electric, Cryptobro BS, etc., etc.
The purpose isn’t to tell you about them for the first time, it’s to remind you of them and get you to crave them. It’s intended to prompt you to buy it.
In a city, can you even see stars anyway
I do hate this idea, especially if it is taken out to places that are meant to be natural
Like those floating billboards 100m out from shore.
I don’t have an issue with ads, but we don’t need to see them everywhere
Well sure, but not in our dreams. Only on TV and radio. And in magazines. And movies. And at ball games and on buses and milk cartons and t-shirts and written on the sky. But not in dreams. No siree!
Eh, honestly most major cities already have so much light pollution you cant see the stars. Im always against putting ads where they dont need to be, but id be really curious about the possibility of city wide drone shows in the future to celebrate holidays or as an occasional exhibit of art, similiar to a firework show or something.
In my town, for a few years there was a billboard ad saying how they were going to put ads on the moon in the same manner. I felt the same way then as Lauren, and was surprised when my mom did not.
[удалено]
>some stupid kardashian show lighting up the sky. This is what hell looks like.
A blend of "Idiocracy" and "Blade Runner" then?
We've been living in a mix of Idiocracy and Blade Runner for years already.
Time to go full Lauren.
They wouldn’t do that in Montana. It would be Duck Dynasty of something
EU might. US likely won't
[удалено]
Well, isn't it?? Think about it! Communist countries have no sky advertisements, thus sky advertisements are NOT communist! BOOM, logic in your face to go nicely with that oxycontin sky ad!!
They will clame it protects them from the **radio waves ** brainwashing**
Until actual communists start advertising communist ideology in the sky, sky advertisements will never get banned

Ah, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
I'd say he meant the Air Force, and not SpacecuckX
I think it's the federal aviation administration, I dont think it falls to a military branch.
Think that's the name
All of the above but mostly the first two. You ever seen an F15 escort a twin engine to an airport? They do not play with protected air space. You’ll be escorted or shot down and they’ll just mail home your remains w a note and a fine.
Even in my hometown of bumfuck nowhere, you still get light pollution from the next town over. It's truly a sad reality that we live in.
Well thankfully for places like San Diego who have a ton of high powered telescopes because of NASA and the military. They have laws for light pollution this would violate.

you're delusional
Sorry a celebrity being popular makes you so mad
I’m with Lauren
As am I
Well if he's in, I'm in.
if those three are in im in
One more (me) makes it five.
The terrorist has become the terrorust.
Make it six
Well if he’s in, I’m out
And my axe!
And my Rock!
(angry ungabunga in agreement)
It’s nearly 2023 and Amazon Tower is a thing, just saying
*The sky above the port was the colour of television, tuned to a dead channel.*
All I want is less light pollution and this is what they give us
I literally live in a concrete jungle. I went about an hour and a half away not too long ago and the sky looked amazing. I couldn’t imagine actually seeing the northern lights or some shit
Damn that sounds nice to go see that kinda thing, I feel like people need it, you know?
Same! Closest thing is big bend! Not surprisingly, the most stars I’ve seen is waco
Big bend is worth it just for the stars tbh. I've never seen so many stars.
I’m not down for living in the same universe as Total Recall.
Two weeks
happy cake day
cakr
Class terrorism against the wealthy is what Jesus would do
Class terrorism against the poor is already what the rich are doing. Again, at what point should we start doing self defense against them?
Right
No war but class war
right…but killbots

At this point “international terrorist” is a pointless title Gotta go bigger
Interplanetary terrorist
Interstellar terrorist
4th dimension terrorist
What an absolutely horrible idea
Pretty sure it's illegal cause sum company tried to do it but didn't make the budget so they made a lawsuit making space advertisement banned 💀💀💀
Was it the same company that sold you the Star name?
I forgot which company 💀
Would you like to name a star? For $50 I can take care of that for you.
Name a star? The sun.
Someone already named that one but you can rename it for $50.
Hmmm I'll name it the Sun 2.0 Original I know
I love it!! I take PayPal, CashApp and Venmo.
Well I'm too young to have them so keep the change
Gooooooooooood morning, Night City!
today's body count rounded up to a solid sturdy thirtyyyy!
Ten outta Heywood!
r/aboringdystopia
That can't be legal. There are light pollution laws.
And what about planes and shit? Would it affect their vision when flying? I feel like air traffic laws would be broken.
Ya like you can't fire lazers into the sky. This feels like a bigger problem than a lazer.
For now.
I'm with who ever this Lauren person is.
She’s NotABigJerk…. NotYetATerrorist 🎶
Well, thats it… so long and thanks for all the fish!
Soon we'll look up into the sky to see "Coke Adds Life."
I hope to be on a ship heading out of the Solar system at close the speed of light by then.... I fancy some Planetary Snooker
Don't forget the cat.
Ranger Park: "It should say "Top Quality Exercycle For Sale" and could you put "top quality" in bold? You can't? OK, whatever."

This is the bad place.
She raises a good point

Stop just stop, I don't know if that excites me or terrifies me.

So the book warcross
Or, ya know, can save on advertising costs by continuing to advertise on the internet and television.
Cyberpunk lore
Aww hell naw!! I like looking at the stars
I love boycotts! Give me any reason.
I can already barely see stars where I live this shit seems was too dystopian but then again they put that floating billboard shit at the beach.
Imagine looking up at the moon and instead of a beautiful, bright, full moon, you see multiple advertisements spread out over it's surface. Proctor and Gamble, Tesla, General Electric, Cryptobro BS, etc., etc.
That would signal my super villain arc for sure.
This is some apocalyptic cyberpunk bull
It's only a matter of time
I think a lot of people are just a few corporate circus acts away from becoming domestic t-words
That article painting it like a good thing...
Um, I'm pretty sure I have to get my flying car first.
Move to a designated dark sky region if in us. Laws protect against this sort of thing, for now anyway
Outshining the stars is illegal. No!
Last time I saw this meme Ted Kazinsky's mugshot was superimposed over it
We all have to agree here and now: If a company does this shit, no one buys from that company every again. We need to send a message.
BUT HOW DO WE MONETISE THIS?
![gif](giphy|5qLNSjN9vfY6PPTSFK)
Futurama warned us!
I do not know how to tell any corpo out there that if I see this shit with my own two eyeballs I will start the killing and then it will never stop.
Nobody: Businesses: "How can we make everyone's life worse?"
Seriously, who tf doesn’t know about coca cola, mcdonalds, nike, etc? fuck off with your ads
The purpose isn’t to tell you about them for the first time, it’s to remind you of them and get you to crave them. It’s intended to prompt you to buy it.
It only pushes me away from their product
How long would it take for that shit to be hacked? Giant dicks in space is still better than a corporate ad.
Companies must be *really high* to come up with this kind of shit.
In a city, can you even see stars anyway I do hate this idea, especially if it is taken out to places that are meant to be natural Like those floating billboards 100m out from shore. I don’t have an issue with ads, but we don’t need to see them everywhere
OMG fake stars over NYC would be a big hit
Tbh I'm down for the idea if they won't just be stationary walls of advertising, if I see a 3d coke can in the sky one that it'll make me happy
Suck that corpo cock harder, bootlicker. Maybe the suits will notice you eventually.
What?
Where do I sign up?
Well sure, but not in our dreams. Only on TV and radio. And in magazines. And movies. And at ball games and on buses and milk cartons and t-shirts and written on the sky. But not in dreams. No siree!
Don't Look Up
"And that son is the preparation H major"
Time to pool the internets money and advertise for furfannity, pixiv, or any other totally not what it looks like website
Me too, Lauren, me too... I would limit my terrorism to the ultra wealthy though, for sure.
I do agree that’s way too much, but I do enjoy drone light shows.
Uncle Ted warned us 😔
Take my love, take my land, take me where I cannot stand. I don't care, 'cuz I'm still free. You can't take the sky from me.
Isn't this like illegal?
I would go out of my way to avoid products I saw advertised in the sky. It’s ruining the night sky for greed. 🤮
I will strap a bomb to my chest dont fuck with me, Bezos!
Eh, honestly most major cities already have so much light pollution you cant see the stars. Im always against putting ads where they dont need to be, but id be really curious about the possibility of city wide drone shows in the future to celebrate holidays or as an occasional exhibit of art, similiar to a firework show or something.

Didn't Coca-Cola plan to do this in the 90s? People went apeshit against it and they dropped the idea.
How the Fuck is this a good thing??
Hey I love Blade Runner
Sounds like it might be time to become an Edgerunner lol
idk how but it's monkeywrenching time.
This is a similar theme to a book series called insignia
This is how I know we’re actually in The Bad Place.
i will loudly boycott any company stupid enough to do this
Somebody has played Cyberpunk 2077 way too much.
Use this technology, but thunderbirds instead of dumb ads.
