I wonder how soon it will be before some company starts renting these out from the city for ad space.

That's actually a genius idea in the worst way possible!

[twobitshifter]

It will be just like the gas pumps.

(Just to be clear, this is sarcasm.) If you're in a city that relies significantly on parking fees for revenue, this might help subsidize a shift away from cars...

I'll take garbage ads over dystopian "the city implores you to <some thing I probably would have done anyway if left to my own devices>" messages any day.

Yeah, PSAs are dystopian, ads designed to get me to act against my best interests are the sign of a functioning non-dystopian society.

I think these PSAs are for kids and people who might not be familiar with the norms (such as tourists), and for that purpose, they’re worth having.
