It’s mentioned in the article, there’s case law.

  I read the article again, what am I missing? I'm sorry, I know I must be skipping over something somehow but I don't know what!

    That's my reading of the following: A case before the High Court (roughly analogous to the US Supreme Court) determined that images produced in a video game were the property of the game developer, not the player -- even though the player manipulated the game to produce a unique arrangement of game assets on the screen.

      Ah—I wonder if that would really apply to something like Minecraft though. See, I do agree with the court if you're playing through a linear game like Portal or Uncharted. Yes, technically the exact frames are unique to your playthrough, but the creativity came from the game developer. Minecraft is something very different.

        I think this comes down to the point of the article: the whole question is an undecided legal minefield.
