Bengaluru News: A marketing strategist has sparked debate online after sharing a photo of "human ads" in Bengaluru. The image depicts men walking down a street at night, carrying illuminated advertisement boards promoting a 10-minute food delivery service. The post, shared by X user Roshan, included a humorous caption that poked fun at the unconventional marketing strategy. "VC: How much funding do you need? Startup: $5 million. VC: What's your customer acquisition plan? Startup: Human ads. VC: Take my money," he wrote. He further expressed his disapproval, stating, "This sucks. I would do it differently and not use human mules." VC : how much funding do you need ?

Billboards are not a new concept, they have been used since the 19th century to promote various businesses and offers. As advertising posters faced increased taxation and competition for wall space, businesses began employing individuals to carry advertisements. Over the years, this practice has evolved into illuminated electronic boards that can be worn on the back. Despite their historical usage, the recent application of human billboards in Bengaluru has drawn criticism on social media, with many users describing the practice as "extremely dehumanising."

Another added, "I don't know how anyone can see this and not feel sick in their stomach."

REFORM, Ala. (AP) — A federal judge ruled that the family of former NFL player Glenn Foster Jr., who died in law enforcement custody in Alabama, can pursue a lawsuit alleging his death was the result of excessive force. Foster, a former New Orleans Saints defensive end, died on Dec. 6, 2021, three days after being arrested and taken to jail in rural Pickens County for alleged speeding and attempting to elude police. A judge ordered Foster taken to a medical facility in Tuscaloosa for a mental evaluation. Foster was found unresponsive in the back of a law enforcement vehicle when he arrived at the facility. He was pronounced dead about 30 minutes later. His widow, Pamela Foster, filed a lawsuit against officers at the Pickens County Sheriff’s Office and jail saying Foster had been beaten, shocked with a Taser and strangled while at the jail. The defendants then asked a federal judge to dismiss the case. U.S. District Judge Annemarie Carney Axon ruled Thursday refused to dismiss allegations of excessive force and failure to intervene. Axon dismissed other portions of the lawsuit. The ruling came a day before the third anniversary of Foster’s death. Foster appeared in 17 games for the Saints in 2013 and 2014.Jackson State tops Southern 41-13, wins SWAC Championship and berth in Celebration BowlWE all want to try the viral drinks we see on social media, but it can be a bit of an effort to go to the shops and pick up all the ingredients.
