Re: ISP's as Pirates?

My attorney will be in touch.

said by kontos :That's a pretty warped view of Copyright. By your logic, you would argue that you own the copyright to my reply to your post. I mean this post is a direct result of your effort of writing that crazy rant. Your post would be better defined as a collaboration, as is this one. You are as due royalties as any columnist, lecturer or artist is.
That is, you are due royalties on the material that others have profited on. My expectations are more lenient than those who expect a royalty payment for copying a page from a music book for use in a free church production.
I guess to be more in harmony with those who profit from copyright laws, I could demand payment for any reproduction of a creation of mine.

Warped but valid nonetheless. This is really how warped the concept of copyright has become, especially when it comes to the **AA's. And you have warped it one step further by saying that your work is now under NV's copyright. I believe his point was that your post would still be under your copyright, regardless of whether or not it is in response to another post.
Now THAT's twisted. 
edit: Almost as twisted as the brand obfuscation going on as a result of the Olympics.  |
