H & M steals sign design

Clothing retailer H&M is selling stuff with an image that was stolen from Torey LaConsay

corporations are not people.


from the artists website:
H&M UK have purloined another artist's work. MINE! On the left, you'll see a sign I painted as a love letter to my neighbors in the East Atlanta Village. On the right, you will see a floormat and pillowcase featuring a design with an uncanny resemblance. In H&M's response, they claim that they can assure us that "this particular design has not been influenced by your friends work and that no copyright has been infringed." I beg to differ, H&M.

San Francisco Bank of America ATMs converted into truth machines

Bank of America ATMs In San Francisco Turned Into Truth Machines

Rainforest Action Network activists took to the streets of San Francisco and turned every single one of Bank of America's Automated Teller Machines in the city into Automated Truth Machines. Using special non-adhesive stickers that were designed to look exactly like BoA's ATM interface, the activists gave the bank's customers a menu of what their money is being used for, including investment in coal-fired power plants, foreclosure on America's homes, bankrolling climate change, and paying out fat executive bonuses.
