They like to
appear in the guise of brief-casing wielding executives. But their
business has little to do with shares, profits and corpoarte
expansion: The people behind Rtmark themselves as an investment fund
for critical media-activism. Their creations include hoax websites
on US presidential candidate George Bush, New York mayor Rudi
Guiliani and oil giant Shell. They're were also behind the project
"The Barbie Liberation Foundation". They altered the speech boxes in
talking barbies in order to make a statement about the conventional
gender roles imposed on us. Rtmarks own webpage looks like your
regular site for brokers until you take a closer look at the
invitation to invest in their form of sabotage. They say it's not a
destructive tactic - they want you to think twice about the image a
company or public personality have created for themselves. Rtmark`s
motto is something along the lines of " If they can lie, we can too"
or to put it In their own words:
¿TMark is a
brokerage
that benefits from "limited liability" just like
any other corporation. Using this principle, ¿TMark supports the
sabotage of corporate products, with no risk to the public investor.
