There is a very vital distinction: Disney removes all other copies, but allows access to the original. China removes all copies. Disney restricts how you can access the information, but China restricts what you can access.
Granted, the distinction isn't completely binary, as you can restrict access to modes that are difficult. But I still think that the distinction is productive. Disney's restriction does still fundamentally allow access to the material, while China does not.
- zmimon 17y ago> Disney removes all other copies, but allows access to the original. But they don't have to - they could banish Mickey from the world if they chose to. Copyright allows them to do it. Is that wrong? I think it's more about who created the information - copyright is about controlling things you yourself create. Censorship is about controlling access to things other people created.
- naa42 17y agoBe the way, can the company be the creator? The work of art is created by people. So why the current Disney's directors or shareholders do control the creation of the company's founder who has passed decades ago?
