Silliness in Washington

[unixronin]

It appears the FBI sent Wikipedia a cease-and-desist letter for displaying an image of the FBI seal on the Wikipedia main article page about the FBI, citing a law intended to prohibit use of the Seal for profit or for misrepresentation of identity.

It also appears that Wikipedia's response was appropriately snarky.

That response letter is a thing of beauty.

Isn't it, though? There had to have been red faces at the FBI over this one.
