PPP - Studio Brief 01 - I have NOT read and agree to the terms of use

"I have NOT read and agree to the terms of use"

This is a piece of work I saw on trendlist today that I think is very effective at giving off a message to the audience and I also agree with the message it conveys. The piece was made in light of the recent terms of use scandals such as retaining information that then gets sold to companies for advertising. It was created by a Graphic Design MA student at the UAL London College of Communication.


I really like the aesthetic of this piece, with clear and concise information that challenges the unnecessary complexity of Terms of Service from social networks today. The red is bold and challenging, and this feels like a powerful message towards social networks with messages of reform and anger. I enjoy the style of work where a designer is using his skills to try and change the modern world, which is a breath of fresh air from simply marketing and logo design.
