"Copyright is given de facto, but" ... If you're going to imply someone isn't reading what they wrote, the least you can do is read what they wrote.

"Copyright is given de facto, but" ...
If you're going to imply someone isn't reading what they wrote, the least you can do is read what they wrote.
- dfc 15y agoTrue. I apologize for coming off like a jerk. I should have provided more context, i was trying to highlight that contrary to what the OP wrote that is was irrelevant "they never show that the text was copyrighted."
- tylerritchie 15y agoI didn't disagree with the, "they never show that the text was copyrighted." But I did think it reasonable to point out that there is--in fact--a place to register your works for a registered copyright. You don't have to, but it does give you nice benefits.
- rhizome 15y agoI think it might just be bad wording. One of the requirements of notification for copyright infringement is to identify the specific instances of infringement.
- jfarmer 15y agoActually, it's not de facto, it's the opposite: de jure.
- tylerritchie 15y agoAgreed, poor choice of words on my part. I was using it colloquially as concerning legal matters, which was inaccurate.
- jfarmer 15y agoIt was more a reply to mokus, who chided you for being wrong even though you were technically (albeit unknowingly) correct. ;)
