CMST 2G03 Chapter Notes - Chapter 4: Usenet, Reddit, The Technique
Document Summary
The freedom to quote, and build upon such quotes is taken for granted by everyone who writes. This author"s friend ben, his writings would include different quotes from different authors. Can we just note that rw" means read-write" ok cool. Governing forms of expressions should the laws on using different types of work be the same: writing with text is stuff everyone is taught to do while film/record making was left for the professionals. What laws will be governing this kind of creativity (of remixing all these things together) The distinction isn"t between that one is text and the other is film/music/images: instead: commercial/public presentations and noncommercial/private use of text/film/music/images. In today"s world, there"s no expectation to ask disney to use a clip of iron man in a home movie, or if some kid is painting mickey mouse on their wall. The freedom to quote is not universal in the noncommercial sphere because permission is vital, legally .
