Two mysterious billboards have appeared in New York. One, located on West Broadway near Canal Street, reads, "Your data should belong to the NSA" and the other, located at 27th and Broadway, reads, "The Internet should be regulated."

A Clear Channel spokesperson, David Grabert, confirmed to Animal New York the work is part of a teaser campaign saying,"For now, I am respecting the creative campaign and reserving comment on who the advertiser is."

One of the boards is also in San Francisco located on 101 North. The LA Times believes it could be blogger-turned-venture capitalist Michael Arrington who is behind the campaign citing his desire to shame companies aiding NSA efforts.

It seems details as to who's behind the campaign will be revealed next week.
