By that logic, Banksy's Napalm is also advertising, but I don't think every glimpse of a logo or mascot works in a brand's favour.

damn, I forgot about that piece. it's haunting, really

Well when it is 100% associated with a negative message, constructed in a political way that makes it obvious, then it's rather different I'd say...

Also what Banksy did was not mainly with the logo, but with the mascot, an antropomorphised character representing the brand and puting it into a human situation...
