It all depends on context, imo. People should generally leave other people's private property alone. But if it's an ugly cinderblock wall downtown, some kind of drab piece of infrastructure, and the graffiti artist is actually making an effort to make it look good - it can be public art

Bonus points if it covers up a low effort ad

Yeah I guess that's the issue. It has to look good. Otherwise it's just garbage on the walls.

Most of the time it does not look good (imo of course), but of course there are exceptions.
