AT&T, NSA Get 'Culture Jammed'

The Billboard Liberation Front, a group of so-called "culture jammers" who, among other acts, alter the wording of billboard advertisements to make a political or anti-corporate message, have hit again. The group has claimed credit for altering an AT&T billboard in San Francisco to protest AT&T's collaboration with the National Security Agency's warrantless wiretapping of Americans' phones and Internet usage.

The billboard was a bit too late to influence the telecoms, who've announced this past week to continue the surveillance program.

That billboard is the property of someone and as such was vandalized. A crime, which should be prosecuted and punished accordingly.
