TIL: The 2000s piracy PSA used a font designed by the fantastic Just van Rossum, whose brother Guido created the Python programming language. https://fontsinuse.com/uses/67480/piracy-it-s-a-crime-psa

While cloned fonts may not be illegal, it certainly wasn’t in the spirit of the campaign.

The music was definitely used illegally though.
