VanMoof ad scares French auto manufacturers

[ChezCheese:)]

It's a great ad, but Goliath is freaked out, apparently:

False.

It's a group of censors. Not the auto industry.

I would think the car industry would be savvy enough not to boost something like this through the obviously predictable Streisand effect. When you're powerful enough you have someone else do your dirty work.

Plus, car companies are among the biggest ad buyers. The censors probably don't like someone attacking their biggest patrons.

 

[ChezCheese:)]

Yes, but I doubt the censors would be assessing the ad if auto manufacturers hadn't asked them to.

How do they possibly let climate change adverts run, then? They are all about creating a climate of fear of climate change.
