First of all, thank you so much for reporting this.
I speak for the mods when I say that we check most of the posts and if something like this comes up, it will be discussed and taken care of directly.
In this case it was not obvious now, good that you recognized it.

cufonfonts states the following regarding licensing:

Legal notice

Cufonfonts.com's fonts are uploaded by our members. The license information stated by the members is usually correct but we cannot guarantee it. We give great importance to copyright and have developed some techniques to make sure that the previously mentioned issue doesn't occur, also the system automatically displays the copyright information of the font here. If you believe that this font is in violation of copyright and isn't legal, please let us know in order for the font to be removed or revised.

The original website is here: typography.com/fonts/operator/styles

I think this should be reported at Cufonfonts and we will discuss this internally how to handle the post.

Thanks for prompt response and i do understand that sometimes it is hard to discover this with third-party.
My intention was just to make sure that we at dev.to remain clean.

Hey Robin, thanks for doing this. I know it's pretty late but I completely agree with you and as a corrective action, we have removed the post from the aforementioned Telegram channel (managed by Team Xenox) as well. We will be more vigilant about what is shared on the channel going forward.
