Sure, but fair use is a defense that needs to be argued. You can probably argue that the New York Post publishing excerpts from some of the emails should be protected by fair use. I don't see how you can argue that the store owner is protected by fair use or how the Post releasing and profiting off previously unpublished full photos of Hunter Biden qualify as fair use.
- chithanh 6y agoIf it is not covered by fair use, then it would be at most copyright infringement, and there the rights holders can use DMCA takedown notices. There was no necessity of Twitter to engage in pro-active censorship here. In my understanding the policy was aimed originally at stopping the spread of photos like in The Fappening hack. But there was nothing hacked here in my understanding.
