Watching the watchers
Predator Watch sees the dangers.
This new campaign for Children of the Street Society, by Cossette Vancouver, promotes its Predator Watch program – a partnership with B.C. police to catch and deter child predators. The campaign features bathroom postings with life-like looking cameras designed to freak out bathroom-goers, while an online banner ad featuring a 16-year-old girl invites folks to “connect.” When they do the user’s webcam places the person in the frame, with the text “If you’re thinking of hooking up with children, don’t. Undercover officers are online.” Creepy on so many levels.
