Terminology
LOS has also been referred to as live voting (LV), Live Vote, or Live Opinion (LO). Some of these terms are still in common use; however, LOS becoming a commonly accepted term. It is sometimes written in lowercase, as los.
History
The concept comes from gladiator games. Gladiators offered audiences an example of Rome's martial ethics and, in fighting or dying well, they could inspire admiration and popular acclaim.
The belief that the 'thumbs-up' and 'thumbs-down' gestures indicated approval and disapproval respectively entered the public consciousness with Jean-Léon Gérôme's 1872 painting 'Pollice Verso'.
The popular belief is that “thumbs down” meant kill and “thumbs up” meant spare, but we have no visual evidence for this, and the written evidence states that pollicem vertere (“to turn the thumb”) meant kill and pollicem premere (“to press the thumb”) meant spare. This may, in fact, indicate that those who wanted the gladiator killed waved their thumbs in any direction, and those who wanted him spared kept their thumbs pressed against their hands (as illustrated in this relief; see especially detail of the hand).
Today LOS is an activity launched in Europe during a football event. The concept is using on the mobile phone two cards representing the thumbs-up and the thumb-down.
