Not sure but first thought was part of the right to repair movement having adopted clippy as a mascot/logo (louis rossman)

They use clippy, not paperclips.

Specifically the cartoon stock art clippy from the original video essay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_Dtmpe9qaQ

Notice how almost all the comments on that video bear the clippy icon. It's spreading everywhere. Twitter, Reddit, Instagram ...

I don't think that it's spreading anymore. At least from what I've seen.

Thr thing about the general public is that they're apathetic, they can't boycott their way out of a paper bag.
