Ive been listing through some older news on the net, searching information about Unauthorized Advertising, since Im a column writer for a weekly newspaper (ET) Ive read quite a lot articles I could on actual themes about unauthorized advertising in past ten years. The news that shocked me the most was article about prostitutes cards in phone boxes, problems it was triggering and unpleasant sight for any passengers or tourists (especially in London area) to see and governments effort to solve and tackle the problem it was causing. Believe me that this advertising has been the most repulsive and repellent thing I have ever seen. I know that police and government had quite big problem in bringing new laws that will reduce or totally ban unauthorized advertising from streets or net.

I remember about that problem, I read about it too, I know how much difficult it was for government to restrict and develop program and new laws to tackle spreading of prostitutes cards being placed on phone boxes all over London. It makes me laugh when I think about it, but I do know how severe this sexual advertisings were, it couldnt be worse for London, as tourist have been devastated and repelled by this sight. London, as one of the most known fashion centre of the world and most beautiful capitals you can ever visit had inconvenience handling this problem, especially in 1996 when police was striping this ads from phone boxes, so in one day police had to take off more than 21000 cards from phone boxes, and minutes later carders have been sticking new ones and constant battle would continue.
