LED device in Boston bomb scare on eBay
Posted in News, Internet, Gadgets |
The electronic device which caused Boston to shut down in a high alert bomb scare has gone on eBay. The LED devices featuring cartoon moon men with an obscene gesture were part of a guerrilla marketing campaign to promote the late-night Adult Swim cartoon “Aqua Teen Hunger Force”. The moon men, or Mooninites, as they’re known to the show’s faithful, are delinquent outer-space men who make frequent appearances on the programme.
At least 4 devices are being sold on eBay with starting bids of US$1,999. Also on sale are T-shirts with the Mooninite graphic and the text “Up Yours, Boston”. The devices have been in place in many major cities across the US but only in Boston did such an incident occur.
The creators of the Mooninites device are pleading not guilty to felony charges. One of the creators is a Belarusian, has a green card and is seeking asylum in the United States. We all know what his chances of getting asylum are like now.
