Comment on I have never seen an ad in the past 6 years. I use android phone, windows PC and Android TV. Keen to hear when was the last time you saw an AD ?

  In some cities they are, and it’s a beautiful thing. An example is Canberra, Australia.

    I live near Seattle Washington and there are very few here. Pretty much only on Indian Reservations. But last summer I was on a road trip that took me through Salt Lake City Utah and there were SO MANY BILLBOARDS along the interstate there. I can’t believe the people put up with it.

    Wow I did not notice that this was the case. Gotta appreciate this a bit the next time I visit.

  They can be a bit too much, but thanks to a billboard I found out that one of my favorite bands (Morcheeba) are playing in my city.

  Time for AR where you can replace all those puplic ads with, umm, nsfw art, for example.
