How to replace the Ubuntu 20.04 logo globally?

Question

Is there a way of replacing the Ubuntu logo globally? I want to replace the logo on boot time, on login page and in Settings → About (the orange logo).

Thanks in advance. If you want me to specify a bit more, please ask.

The icon file is named distributor-logo.svg. To find it, use:

locate distributor-logo.svg

In Ubuntu 20.04, I found it in the following locations (there are also some icons in the /snap directory which I have not listed here).

/usr/share/icons/Humanity/places/16/distributor-logo.svg
/usr/share/icons/Humanity/places/22/distributor-logo.svg
/usr/share/icons/Humanity/places/24/distributor-logo.svg
/usr/share/icons/Humanity/places/48/distributor-logo.svg
/usr/share/icons/Humanity/places/64/distributor-logo.svg
/usr/share/icons/Humanity-Dark/places/16/distributor-logo.svg
/usr/share/icons/Humanity-Dark/places/22/distributor-logo.svg
/usr/share/icons/Humanity-Dark/places/24/distributor-logo.svg
/usr/share/icons/Humanity-Dark/places/48/distributor-logo.svg
/usr/share/icons/Humanity-Dark/places/64/distributor-logo.svg
/usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-dark/apps/16/distributor-logo.svg
/usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-dark/apps/22/distributor-logo.svg
/usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-light/apps/16/distributor-logo.svg
/usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-light/apps/22/distributor-logo.svg

You can take a backup of these files and replace these with your favorite logo of appropriate size to change the Ubuntu logo system-wide.
