Check it out:

    Hey guys, all these parodies are great but you don’t know that Italian government administration actually produced and send in theathers a campaign like those. It’s not a joke. They really did that!!!

    This is the real advertisement.

    Thanks Smeerch, the anti-ad from the first link was great. :) Anybody who knows italian should check it out.

    Also, the video in the main post seems to have been removed. Anybody has another source?

    The IT Crowd is great.

    Smeerch, your ad was made by the European Union. They have the same ad in every country, the just change the written language. The funniest version is in Belgium. Because it is a bilingual county, you have to watch the same thing twice on some DVDs. Once in French and once in Flanders.

    Apparently they’re mad that the piracy video was pirated on YouTube…
