Thanks to the members of a street art project, some bus shelter adverts for Facebook in London were improved by a good ol' fashioned culture jam.

The Protest Stencil is taking credit for these subvertising efforts which altered Facebook's messaging to say, "Fake news is not our friend, it's a great revenue source," and "Data misuse is not our friend, it's our business model."

They refer to their work as "honest Facebook ads," writing, "To facebook, you're not a 'friend', you're the product on sale." Preach it!https://www.instagram.com/p/BmgCAhknnv7/?taken-by=proteststencilhttps://www.instagram.com/p/BmbKDvQHRFP/?taken-by=proteststencil
