Russian Commuters Treated to Free Roadside Pornography
One of the first and most obvious truisms of advertising is that "sex sells." When said sex is on a billboard, and extremely graphic, it also apparently stops traffic. According to FOX News, "traffic jerked to a standstill" in Moscow last night when hardcore pornographic footage was broadcast on two downtown billboard video screens.The screens are professionally operated by ad firm Panno.ru, which said someone hacked into its computers and swapped a legitimate advertisement video with the pornographic material. The road-sign sex display congested traffic on the popular Garden Ring Road for an entire 20-minute period before company officials disabled the billboards. Panno.ru attributed the attack to either hooligan hackers or advertising competitors, but it probably shouldn't be too worried about the consequences. Russian commuters obviously don't seem to mind if they get stuck in the crossfire of a bawdy billboard ad war. [From: FOX News]

do you really think that they are going to post a pornographic image on this article....unless there is a warning they aren't even allowed to post it....unless you go to another site or to russia - you're not going to see the other images that were shown.....
in all honesty...i don't want to see them!

If that billboard incident happened in L. A. or San Francisco drivers would just shrug their shoulders, yawn and say: "Oh well.......".

I am more shocked that Russia finally have advertising instead of the content of the advertising.

In the seventies you could pass drive-in theaters all over America and see XXX porn flicks up on the screens. How short is our memory!

Porn could be no worse than the filth that the corporate world uses to shill their garbage. Billboards of all kinds should be banned everywhere.
