Consumer/Accidental Advertising Medium Disclaimer

At the time of this product’s purchase and/or provision, I was not given the opportunity of removing the advertising, logo or branding from visibility to the public. While I do intend to use this product, and its use may inadvertantly make the product’s advertising, logo or branding visible to the public, I do not, nor will not, support, condone or promote the product and, furthermore, do not testify, ensure, swear, attest or promise any claims made by the advertising, logo or branding thereon. Additionally, as a consumer and accidental advertising medium for this product, I provide the following disclaimer. I have no knowledge of the origin of this product or the conditions of the laborers who created it. I have no knowledge of the origin of the advertising, logo or branding on this product, the products and/or services they offer, the quality of the products and/or services they offer, the conditions endured by the labors of the product and/or services they offer, international, national and/or state domestic and/orforeign trade laws that may be breached by using the products and/or services they offer, violations to OSHA, Free Trade Agreement, NATO, SEATO, EOE or AA standards based on the employment of the laborers that provide the products and/or services offered. While I do not condone sweatshop labor, unfair working conditions, exporting work to foreign companies thus denying domestic workers jobs to feed families and stimulate local economies, selling shoddy products or tricking consumers into advertising their products and/or services by forcing them to accidentally advertise said products and/or services on this product, I have no choice but to continue to use this product with this disclaimer. Finally, I was not notified if any animals were hurt in the creation and/or distribution of this product and, while I hope they weren’t, cannot assume responsibility for harsh treatment.

I like it loads. It should be on the back, though, since I would feel uncomfortable with someone staring at my chest that long. But if it's on my back, people in class who sit behind me or on the bus at the same location would have time to engage in the awesome-ness of this shirt. Maybe on the front make up your own advertising-ish logo, in a mockery of other ones.

Linguistic master- but you did use a lot of words that mean very close to the same thing (testify, swear, attest)- I love this only for the verbage, I would never wear it. I have been thouroughly entertained for atleast 10 minutes. thank you.

it's a little much if you ask me. i don't think lawyers would even take the time to read all this. hmmm. maybe you could get some inspriation from the artwork over at adbusters...they have some good examples of anti-consumerist/capitalist imagery that cut to the point.

I agree with rabidlizzy... put it on the back and I'd most likely buy it.
