Good Ad / Bad Ad

Terms of service

Updated 2026-08-17 · plain words, on purpose

1 · Where the stickers go

Stickers go on flyers, notices and pasted-up ads — paper that gets replaced anyway. Not on glass, plastic, metal, vehicles, ad inventory or anyone's property. Every code is reserved to your account, so a sticker on something permanent is traceable to you.

2 · The codes

Reserved codes are permanent. They are never recycled, and an unused code stays reserved. Codes can be voided, which stops a capture but keeps the record.

3 · What you capture

You keep your photograph. You give this project a licence to show it in the archive, on the map and in the feed, with its date and location. Captured entries stay as a public record — including entries for ads that are gone.

4 · Notes

Argue about the ad. Do not threaten, dox or harass anyone. Notes can be hidden or withdrawn, and an account can be restricted from posting.

5 · Takedowns and DMCA

If you hold rights in something shown here, or you appear in a photograph, tell us which entry and leave an email — no account needed. We read every one and we say what we did. The takedown page writes the notice straight to the moderators.

File a takedown notice

This is a performance-art project and a public archive. It is run by people, not a company with a legal department. Use it in good faith and it will keep working.
