“I guess we should have to retype the lines from a news article one line at a time per post if we want to discuss it on a news forum too, right?”

You mean that’s not what we’re supposed to do? Now you know why I haven’t been posting articles...

(1) Because a 5 hour series on the civil war might contain an hour worth of class material

(2) Because when covering a topic they might want 15 minute snips from different material in one presentation

One of the many idiocies of the last administration is that it didn’t take away the Clinton special-interest subsidy to Hollyweird, aka the DMCA.

That's because the last administration got it into their peabrains that things like the DMCA or limiting spam were "anti-business."

You’ve got it BACKWARDS. MPAA and RIAA lobbied to change EXISTING copyright law.

They are the ones wasting your congresscritter’s time on copyright law.

The school is doing as always has been permitted under the law.

Big Media doesn’t like it.
