It's been banned from being shown on television, but this doesn't stop it from being shown online.

Clearcast reportedly banned the ad from TV broadcast because it didn’t comply with the political rules in the Broadcast Code of Advertising Practice.

Yeah, I’m quite certain when they asked Greenpeace to make them a campaigning advert they had absolutely no idea it might get banned, and never for one second imagined it might go viral as a result. Their flabber must have been well and truly gasted.
