It's possible that it could actually work, meaning, average Joe thinks its kind of cool and buys some pepsi.
There are some people it will work for. I believe that too.
It is the much larger set of people who see the implications. And who see average Joe bag of doughnuts will already have had plenty of Pepsi impressions, if not Pepsi itself.
Driving some spurious sales with night sky pollution is not something to be rewarded.

Spam in space, the final frontier.
Upvoting chiefly because I want to see what the HN community says about this one...
Two fronts:
One, marketing people who just got left on terrestrial earth, feeling like chumps. They want in on that action.
Two, a ton of ordinary people, me included, who will seek to marginalize the living fuck out of Pepsi, maybe even also having had favorable thoughts about the brand, because just because a thing can be done, does not mean it should.
