> When a new situation appears (like whether machines should be allowed to learn on copyrighted works), the legality of the situation should be decided explicitly by the legislative branch Okay, so what happens in the interim situation? If the legislature hasn't spoken yet, is it assumed to be legal or assumed to be illegal? Or is this assumption tested on a case-to-case basis, with both sides making arguments as to why it should be treated to be legal/illegal in this specific scenario?
