Wow, really?
Do you know of an analysis that details this? The post-mortem on this must have been crazy. That's got to be a great "You've got to be kidding me" moment for the folks when they went in to fix the issue.

All "writing" was executable code in Tempest because everything being drawn is by telling the electron gun where to aim, so you have commands like a "Turtle" graphics library. There were sections of anti-piracy code that would check magic numbers and perturb those copyright drawing routines if the check failed.
