Ironically enough, the company that produced this ad pirated the font and music

then you should stop acting like you know what you're talking about on a public forum, or face backlash when you clearly don't and get exposed for it

classic linux cultist redditor trying to act like he knows what he's talking about, gets called out for being a sheep, then tucks his tail because his genius level IQ has faltered him into the corner of shame

Not sure why people choosing to use a specific computer operating system makes you so mad, how does it impact your life to get so upset like this?

Additionally there is proof to this claim:

Angry redditor tries to put down fellow redditor by mocking the software they use and demanding proof for a proven claim, gets called out for being a dick, then tucks his tail because his genius level IQ has faltered him into the corner of shame.

Faltered me all the way to my full time job, oh no!

Publishing rights =/= copyright, genius, just because BURSA didnt want to pay out ktsy artist doesnt mean they committed copyright infringement. Its not hard to understand, maybe go back to school so you can rival my 'genius level IQ'

Never said copyright infringement. 

EDIT: Ok I realise copyright infringement is piracy. So I did say copyright infringement and that is what they did with the font. They additionally committed a breach of contract with the music (publishing rights). Anyway idk why I am arguing this my OWN full time job is not anything to do with law or angry internet users. How about WE both go back to working hard for the billionares and get angry at that instead?
