Right, but courts are the only ones that can make a fair use determination.
- dragonwriter 3y agoThat's not true other than in the sense that “courts are the only ones that can make a determination that an act would violate copyright law outside of fair use considerations” is also true. Its true that many times fair use will be somewhat harder to predict what a court would decide on than other aspects of copyright law, because the statute and precedent in combination are less clear, but that's not a categorical distinction.
