So, here is an odd and very fresh story (I just spoke to Declan at Wired and
he will most probably write something about it).
Reuters picture of pro-taliban rallies in Bangladesh:

Check the picture by the ear of Osama Bin Laden on the poster. Yes, it is
indeed Bert of Sesame Street.

Today this picture was published in Swedens leading tabloid (removed from
the online edition after a few hours):

Check by the ear again.

Of course I know about the Evil Bert web site ( http://www.fractalcow.com/
bert/bert.htm ), but this is something else.

This seems to be actual footage of the rallies.

It looks like whoever made the poster included the picture of Usama Bin
Laden and Bert of Sesame Street found at the < following URL:

So this is what copyright infringement on the Internet will lead to in
practice .-D

Amazing - isn't it!?
