The copyright page for the Sellotape website claims, and I quote, “Hyperlinking to this site, is not permitted without the express prior permission of Sellotape®.”

Obviously no one would ever be so bold as to tell people they can’t link to their site, nor would it be very effective.  Obviously what’s going on here is a bit of reverse psychology.  Tell people they can’t link to your website and they’ll do it just to spite you…right?  If you look, they even placed an unnecessary comma in the middle of the sentence.  I’m assuming that this pause is where you would insert a quiet snicker.

Well, fuck you Sellotape.  There’s no way I’m ever linking to your site!

…wait.

Damn they’re good.
