Very cool, thank you so much for the list.

By the way, “another” instance of copycatting? Did this happen before?

I guess the first instance wasn’t copycatting per se, but it was along those lines:

Some clothing store in Iran was using Stephen’s image to sell suits. Since they don’t follow international copyright laws, you can imagine how well that went down…

Ah, thank you. I actually had seen that, but I didn’t know he’d done an item about it on the show. Thanks for the clip!
