Adbusters Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description

Adbusters is a Canadian political magazine, published in Vancouver, British Columbia by the Adbusters Media Foundation.

It is an activist magazine, devoted to numerous political and social causes, many of which are anti-consumerism or anti-capitalist in nature. Adbusters is paticularly well-known for their culture jamming campaigns, and the magazine often features photographs of politically-motivated billboard or advertisement vandalism sent in by readers. The magazine also founded Buy Nothing Day, an annual event held on the day after American Thanksgiving (traditionally the largest shopping day of the year) in which citizens are encouraged to not buy anything. They are also one of the sponsors of TV-Turnoff Week.

Recently, the organization has begun selling shoes with their black spot "anti-logo". They say the project is an experiment in "anti-capitalism": each shoe comes with a share of stock in the company, allowing owners to vote on the website on new ventures and what to do with profits.
