I’ve seen these all over Europe. Some have simple images of the cross flashing, some have windows screensaver esque animations, and some have 3d renders of various things rotating in all sorts of ways. Why is that? Wouldn’t a simple green cross be enough to get the point across, or do they need to be overly verbose? Here’s the full video instead of a gif
“annoying” is the “made you look” of advertising.
Could you elaborate on “all over Europe”? We don’t have those in Sweden, it looks very very tacky.
In how many countries have you seen these?
I’ve seen them in Denmark, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Greece, France (where this particular sign was filmed), Poland, Italy, Spain. That’s all I could remember from the trips I’ve been on in Europe.
Also very common in South America.
They don’t exist in Germany.
No one has hacked them to run porn on yet?
Because they are cool, that’s why.
