North Macedonia advertises Invest.com for free close to a decade
itlogs.comMacedonian transporters have been advertising the private Invest.com website this past decade for free, after a supposed mix up regarding the campaign “Invest in Macedonia”. While the campaign was popular during the tenure of the country’s previous government, Invest.com is a site of a Cypriot currency trading company, and has no connections whatsoever with InvestInMacedonia.gov.mk.
Since this is about Macedonia I can't help but link this gem from Yugoslavia's golden era. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4xdfEzFbrc&ab_channel=ZZTop...
Wait... is that law still in place? Do they still mandate all their trucks to advertise invest.com?
Making a mistake is one thing... mistakes happen all the time.
But then not fixing it for 10 years - that's something else.
The law was from 2015 to 2017 or 2018, but then the stickers stayed on. Nobody bothered to remove them :D
It's a crazy story
it's a sad story, but talks a ton about digital culture and literacy across governments who are having hard time keeping up with tech. The ongoing AI revolution is not going to make it easier
Just remember kids, TBL told us all that cool URIs don’t change!
