Now, getting to the point, I was shocked when I went into the toilet facilities in the pub, and found one of those vending machines that sell novelty items of a sexual nature, featuring on the design something that looked remarkably similar to the BSD Daemon. To the best of my knowledge, the BSD Daemon is copyrighted by Marshall Kirk McKusick. Is this a case of copyright theft? As obviously they are a profit making company. Or have i got totally the wrong end of the stick.
Gee, in the U.S. I've never seen such a machine that wasn't painted the same color as the wall. Maybe I go to the wrong establishments ....

<OT> Not only that, you should probably hack into it and make sure that COPYRIGHT still appears in the / dir ... maybe the Regents need to get involved as well. Or do you suppose there's no software running on that box? 8-D </OT>
On a more somber note, I concur that it seems pretty blatant.
