British spy agency GCHQ is advertising on trendy Shoreditch streets
Business Insider/James Cook
The "clean" graffiti ads, which are created using a pressure washer and a stencil, direct applicants to apply for "technical opportunities" at the agency.
The ads have been appearing around Shoreditch, which is home to lots of different technology startups, and so could be a good place for GCHQ to hire technical talent.
GCHQ confirmed to Business Insider that the ads were real.
But there's something weird about the ads: The website doesn't work. Clicking the gchq-careers.co.uk link takes you to a page with an error message:
GCHQ told Business Insider that it was looking into fixing the URL issue, and it could be connected to web browsers that automatically use a secure HTTPS version of a web page.
