The advertising clause isn't as bad as it sounds.

It only says that if we put out a press release or brochure or some
other advertising material that mentions that we include the program
`blah' which has the above license, we have to include that acknowledgement.

If the advertising doesn't mention `blah', we don't have to include
the acknowledgement.
