Following the scandalous opening ceremony, the American telecommunications and technology company Cellular South, Inc. (C Spire), which specializes in providing wireless internet access, announced the withdrawal of its advertising budget from the Paris Olympic Games.

"We were shocked by the mockery of the Last Supper during the opening ceremonies of the Paris Olympics. C Spire will be pulling our advertising from the Olympics," C Spire wrote on their Twitter account.

C Spire is one of the largest internet providers in the United States.

As the UOJ previously reported, the official Olympic accounts removed the parody video of the Last Supper.
