It’s hard to believe, but there’s a graffiti artist in San Francisco who objects to the iPod.
This giant billboard on the southbound 101 freeway was recently scrawled with the message: “Unplug!”
It didn’t last long. Apple had the billboard replaced within a couple of days. It’s now been swapped for an entirely new iPod ad. (The picture is a couple of months old. I’ve been meaning to post it for a while.)
