Honestly I read the source article five times but I couldn’t understand what the actual violation of rules was; but regardless a series of Nokia Lumia promoting ads that ran on Channel 5 last October were recently ruled as being in violation of UK television sponsorship rules; as far as I understood the violation was possibly related to the fact that the advertisement ran during program content warnings??

Nokia N900 seen in Seeking Justice (oh no, Nicky Cage :()

| January 23, 2012 | 21 Replies

The Nokia N900 was apparently sighted in a move called ‘Seeking Justice’ or ‘Justice’ as it’s now known. I’ve had to slightly pixelate what’s on the screen but you can guess what it said. It’s a shame it’s a Nicky Cage movie. That poor man seems to be a stamp of a bad movie (saving […]
