? The filming and distribution of someone listening to music is literally the breach of copyright, not anything the cop is doing, i.e. playing music to himself, which is obviously legal in every sense.
- paulmd 6y ago> The filming and distribution of someone listening to music is literally the breach of copyright, not anything the cop is doing no, unlicensed public performance is itself a breach of copyright. https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/music-public-performance-rights-ignore-48989/ https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/music-public-performance-r...
- jariel 6y ago? Playing music to yourself is not a 'public performance'. It's completely unambiguous.
- accounted 6y agoGoes to show why the cop wouldnt like to be recorded. Ridiculous people who would freak out if a police officer bothered them for listening to music are now their own worst enemies.
- paulmd 6y ago> Playing music to yourself is not a 'public performance'. cops weren't playing music to themselves though, they were playing it at a protest, audible to all the public participants. > It's completely unambiguous. what's your angle here? like yes, this is completely unambiguous, you can't do what the cops are doing, that is public performance of music. why are you digging for a reason to justify what is clearly an illegal action?
