Today, we hit the streets with a major "And Then?" campaign in the UK, despite having faced strong opposition.
First, our TV ad "And Then?" was banned on British television.
And then, the outdoor ad campaign meant to criticise the TV ban was largely halted.
Here, you can watch the banned ads and explore the entire campaign.
@mullvadnet the West is about to lose the moral and real advantage it had over the rest of the world and become authoritarian like the countries we name as adversaries (China Russia Iran etc). And then?

@mullvadnet And Then? What is point? Is us vs them? Like football hooligans? Our team vs yours? Same criminals just under different flag? That won’t fly well

@mullvadnet sounds great but the long version just crashes a few seconds into playback for me. I'm not in the UK. Glitches out if i download it to play it locally as well. What kind of crazy encoding did you use?

i watched that one ad you shared that is set at the drive through and i have no idea what it was about.
Also, you wrote that whoever decides on whether to allow an ad or not stated that they didnt get what it was about.
Maybe it is just not a good ad.
By all means, fight the fight and i will gladly continue to use your service but perhaps you'd see more of a passionate outcry here, if it didn't feel like you were trying to push an ad you knew would be disallowed so that you can claim it was banned?

@mullvadnet Ok uh genuinely wondering how you tested this website… in firefox the video playback crashes after a few seconds, in chromium it can't even start it… And to be fair, .mov is a rather unusual format for the internet. <.< Please fix?

@mullvadnet maybe it's my phone's fault but I couldn't watch the ad, even when I downloaded the file it appeared to be corrupted and empty after about 10 seconds (at least the first video, didn't try the rest yet).
good luck with the fight, seems tough to face that kind of resistance

@mullvadnet I watched all of those ads today and like... whoa
the production quality is REALLY good, and it does a great job of showing the problems with mass surveillance.

@mullvadnet while (for now?) only specific states are pushing for that sort of surveillance, I think a us version of that ad campaign would be awesome

@mullvadnet If an ad about privacy gets banned, that says more than the ad ever could.

@anthropy @mullvadnet Took a while for mine to play it too, but it did in the end.

@mullvadnet @Ankitayadav I’m deeply suspicious of this. As I understand it this advert wasn’t banned, it wasn’t accepted. Very different.
