You Wouldn't Steal a Font

fedi.rib.gay/notes/a6xqityngfu

fedi.rib.gayRib :ms_red_panda: (@Rib)Today Melissa Lewis over on BlueSky pointed out that the font used in the infamous "You wouldn't steal a car" anti-piracy campaign was actually designed by Just van Rossum, whose brother, Guido, created the Python programming language (https://bsky.app/profile/melissa.news/post/3ln7hx5rhcj2v) She also pointed out that the font had been cloned and released illegally for free under the name "XBAND Rough". Naturally, it would be hilarious if the anti-piracy campaign actually turned out to have used this pirated font, so I went sleuthing and quickly found a PDF from the campaign site with the font embedded (https://web.archive.org/web/20051223202935/http://www.piracyisacrime.com:80/press/pdfs/150605_8PP_brochure.pdf). So I chucked it into FontForge and yep, turns out the campaign used a pirated font the entire time! 📎

"This helix of beauty and violence is what makes Long Beach so dynamic, defined by polarities. Like a blade or a cliff, the edge of the sea shows the flimsy line separating life from death. On one side: sandcastles, seashells, long walks. On the other: rip tides, hypothermia, drowning." —Devon Fredericksen for Switchyard
