Activists with the Rainforest Action Network recently devised a clever way of promoting their message: defacing Bank of America ATMs with non-adhesive stickers that look like the bank’s software interface, bearing some startling truths about the nation’s largest financial institution.

Those are awesome!!!

I like the fact that they are non-adhesive material, meaning they cant charge them with a crime can they? It wont leave a mark after being removed...

I doubt it would reach that many people though... figure 1 avg american would complain about it and have it removed before other people see it...

Gotta be some other ideas out there to catch everybodies eyes

Very creative though!

HAHA! i love it!
now where can i get some?

ahhhh, i love the cacophonists in my city!
brilliant work and love the statements!
and because they are non-glue films, no property has been destroyed.
