Anyone worried that Photoshop CS's blocking of the latest pics of Ol'
Hickory is just another American government plot to push everyone
around will be delighted to know that it's a united effort of US,
Canadian, European, and other banks under the banner of the Central
Bank Counterfeit Deterrence Group. And it's not just the US $20 bill.
Apparently some Euro notes are rejected by the software, too. I knew
that copy machines used the scheme but apparently many color printers
have used the same detection scheme for some time.
