Olympic trade-mark coverup
Boing Boing refers to a Wall Street Journal article that says all corporate logos and names are being covered up with tape at Beijing Olympic facilities. Any name or logo other than those of official paid sponsors are being covered – on virtually everything, including thermostats, fire extinguishers, faucets, and elevators.
And if someone removes the tape, it is replaced by workers specifically assigned to tape replacement.
I understand that paid sponsors have to get something for the vast sums they pay for sponsorship, but to me this crosses the silly barrier.
