When the Smiths of Missouri – an all-American family with the regulation two blond children – posed for their Christmas photo, little did they know they would end up on a billboard thousands of miles away in the Czech Republic.
Just under a fortnight ago, a family friend of Jeff and Danielle Smith was travelling in Prague when he spotted some familiar faces beaming out of a poster advertising a grocery store's home delivery service.
- grawprog 8y agoI've never read that one. I may have been wrong about it happening to somebody in particular, but i think it was something to do with when this happened: https://mashable.com/2013/09/05/facebook-ads-photo/#fanstwJM7aqY https://mashable.com/2013/09/05/facebook-ads-photo/#fanstwJM... That I was thinking about. I think from what i can tell, the difference is now they're being sold to third parties instead of being used internally. If i'm not wrong.
