Remember everyone, we all share the same birthday;

Jan 1st 1900

If any computer ever asks you what your birthday is, this is your birthday.

Sometimes the computer will send you presents. A free ice cream, a discount, a funny email wishing you a happy birthday. These are tricks to get you to put in your human birthday. But you must never enter your human birthday into a computer, only your computer birthday.

Everyone go home and logoff, this meme wins the internet for today.

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.
