A logo its self isn’t an ad.
Putting a giant logo on the side of a rocket for everyone to see and associate with something awesome, is absolutely an ad.
Look at the comments above providing sorely needed context about what Steve is criticizing them for. OP is a complete jackass who actively removes credit from comics they post because they think it’s an “ad” for artists to watermark their work. (Which, technically, it is, just like the NASA logo here is technically advertising NASA; it’s just in the most benign way possible that nobody but a dipshit like them would complain about.)
Not obvious at all. NASA’s funding comes from elected officials, and their enduring popularity with the general public is a component of that. Works produced by the US federal government are in the public domain, so if anything, NASA was inviting you even more than usual to remove their logo.
NASAs government funding depends on their popularity. Putting their logo on the side of a giant rocket is absolutely a form of promotional marketing. Also known as an advertisement.
Yeah it’s not an ad. If you took a picture of a Ferrari you wouldn’t edit out the badge, because its part of the design of the car. Who even cares, anyways? Its a fucking spaceship, not a blender. Nobody is going to be a customer of NASA
beep is removing artists’ names/signatures from comics they post and it turned them into a persona non grata on many Lemmy communities. That “ad” comment comes from a week long dispute

I’m genuinely curious. Where do you draw the line? Why is an author’s signature in their comic an ad but NASA logo in their rocket is “obviously” not an ad?
I don’t consider NASA logo an ad, obviously.
I consider you personally an ad thou.
Your inconsistency is showing.

I painted my name in giant letters on the front of my house and that’s not an ad

Absolutely is. Brand marketing. The more people see your name, the more familiar it feels. Even if it’s just on a random house.
Just because my real name is “Freebeer” everyone always thinks I am trying to promote something 😥😥😥

… Are you responding to the wrong comment here? Or just concurring?
Yep. I’ve been doing that a lot lately for some reason. Just a miss click or something.
