Even those who feel graffiti is an art form have a hard time making the same argument for tagging. Why is tagging a different problem than graffiti?

One possible reason why tagging is seen as a different problem than graffiti is the intention behind the act. Tagging is often associated with vandalism and illegal activities, where individuals mark or deface public or private property without permission. It is typically done to gain recognition or establish territory within the graffiti subculture. On the other hand, graffiti can encompass a range of artistic expressions, including murals or street art created with the consent of property owners. While graffiti is subjective and can be considered a form of art by some, tagging is generally seen as a destructive act that lacks artistic merit.
