Now they're beaming adverts straight into our brains! :eek: How intrusive!! This makes my skin crawl!!:mad: So, essentially you can throw out your TV and opt out of consuming their useless crap, but they can still invade your headspace anytime they want!

Has anyone encountered this yet? I was glad to see that people aren't having it. Someone took the speaker down twice in the same day!!! That's the spirit!
So was it a ghost or just an annoyed resident who stole the speaker from the SoHo billboard twice in one day last week? Horizon Media, which helped place the billboard, had to find a new device that would prevent theft from its rooftop location. Mr. Pompei only takes it as a compliment that someone would go to the trouble of stealing his technology, but hopes consumer acceptance comes with time. "The sound isn't rattling your skull, it's not penetrating you, it's not doing anything nefarious at all. It's just like having a flashlight vs. a light bulb," he said.
Right, nothing "nefarious" here folks. We're just going to start beaming voices into you head now, that's all!!!:confused: WTF??!!
