Pretty sure this was spontaneous but I can't imagine for a moment the
social media team had nothing to do with it - the photo was printed in colour dozens of times purely for this!

Correct me if i'm wrong, but to the best of my knowledge this was mostly
spontaneous during the hackathon? If it was social media team then it wad a job well done, but that ix not how i perceived it.

I’ll agree with that, Tom. It strikes me as the social media team
jumping at a chance to go viral - which in fairness is sort of their job. It sucks that these kinds of roles can be as unintentionally dickish as in this case.

Its fine to take a stand on a point of copyright.
But being dicks about winning is surely not the sort of attitude we

Agreed. It is rather tacky, juvenile and slightly unpleasant. Be magnanimous in victory and all that. It'd be nice to know who thought "take a photo with the monkey selfie" was a useful and productive piece of free culture activism. Because it just makes us look like mean
jerks.
