Yes... I find the &quot;global movement&quot; label sort of annoying, because it&#x27;s very much a local issue.<p>Some places suffer from excessive advertising, other places are energized by it, and the actual contents, presentation, placement, and other details, all of which are intimately tied in with the local culture, matter a great deal as well.<p>A city like Tokyo would be very, very, different without outdoor advertising, and it&#x27;s not at all clear that it would be better...<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.flickr.com&#x2F;photos&#x2F;snogglethorpe&#x2F;9503120600" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.flickr.com&#x2F;photos&#x2F;snogglethorpe&#x2F;9503120600</a>
