How about the AT&T/Verizon boxes that blight blocks in every city? Here are some photos of those boxes both in parks and in front of houses:

Incidentally San Antonio is the headquarters of AT&T(formerly SBC)

AT&T moved its HQ to Dallas back in 2008/2009 - https://www.att.com/gen/press-room?pid=4800&cdvn=news&newsar...

I did't realize they had moved HQ. They still have a huge presence there, a 14 story building and the ATT Center where the Spurs play. S.A is definitely still ATT's turf though.

I think the boxes should require corporate branding logos to be stenciled on them. Say 10% of the size of the box and prominently located. People should understand each time they see one of those blight boxes that it is AT&T's box.

If the telecoms have to suffer from the eyesore boxes they may expend a little more money to locate them in less prominent places.

Or that might give them yet another in the long list of reasons to continue trying to abandon their wired infrastructure.
