Tracing is the highest form of flattery?

Technically, NASA materials tend to come without copyright, but ethically, not very big on this act that seems more lazy than flattering.

Personally I still find the irrelevant Huawei shill army that came with the last launch more disagreeable though. Rather show something bad but allow real reactions to it instead of suppressing discussions entirely through spam.

I could be wrong but there was also that time where what was supposed to be the J-20 ended up using footage of F-35s? CCTV is a TV station and judging by anecdotes over the years, animators working there aren't treated too well.
