The Anti-Shoplifting
Getting your ideas, your voice out there is hard sometimes, in the face of mainstream media super-powers. Droplifting provides an interesting method of introducing people to new media, because they simply stumble across it (often while they are operating in hard-core consumer mode).
Getting the Drop
Droplifting could be classified as a covert channel because a resource is being utilized in a way it was not (specifically speaking) designed to function in. It could also fall under the heading of Culture Jamming, as it is using corpolitical resources to spread alternative messages and memes.
