Ephics?

Quick addendum to the Phorm traffic tracking/analysis issue: even the spyware pusher's logo seems to be blatant plagiarism.

As a commenter on the Register article notes, they'd also need permission from the font designer to use that typeface. I wonder if they're applying the 'presumed consent' argument to that one too.

Not that it matters: "bad" Phorm will probably change its name to escape its bad reputation (again...) soon. Pity about the damage done to "good" Phorm's name and branding, though.
