A Friday shoutout to the good people at @adfreecities.bsky.social who are doing great work to advise citizens on how to reject and avoid pointless, damaging adverts in our towns and cities.

Embrace ad shrouds, eschew adverts!

Perfectly put. Why do we allow the advertising industry to try and manipulate us in this way?!?

Fun Fact: Advertising is the reason websites want to force app usage on everyone. It is illegal (pretty much everywhere) to reverse engineer an app to implement ad-blocking, but ad-blocking is easy on a website and requires no such effort.

There's an interesting titbit in this article by the chief executive of Vale of Glamorgan Council. Their ban on advertising unhealthy foods, rather than leading to a LOSS in revenue, actually BOOSTED it!

Giving this another plug for any #Caerdydd #Cardiff people who want to object to plans for a massive advert screen by Newport Road, for zero public benefit. Let's keep this stuff off our streets!

Screengrab of the Guardian home page, with annoying popup box.

Some new #enshittification (to me anyway) this week. The Guardian now asks you to choose between accepting cookies for personalised advertising, or to pay £5pm for an "ad-lite" (sic) version - not even an ad-free version.

Guess that's another website I'll not be […]

Nicie piece about @cardiffcouncil.bsky.social further restricting advertising in the city. We're really pleased to see progress on this issue after years of campaigning. Plenty left to do, but it's a huge step forwards.

Not #Cardiff #Caerdydd, but great to see this down the road in the #ValeOfGlamorgan, where the council have agreed to push ahead with plans to ban unhealthy food adverts in certain public spaces. Da iawn!

Sigh. Application to cover up some unique and artistic graffiti on Westgate Street, #Cardiff / #Caerdydd with advertising boards. Granted, the graffiti is promoting a takeaway - but at least it's interesting!

Vale of Glamorgan council hopes to ban junk food adverts Vale of Glamorgan council could be the first to ban junk food adverts in some public spaces.

Great to see this in the Vale of Glamorgan. More and more Welsh councils are taking such steps - but wouldn't it be great to see parties campaigning for a national ban at next year's Senedd election?
