Twitter is deleting stolen jokes on copyright grounds
- Nomentatus 11y agoThat's funny, I thought I left a comment here yesterday. The gist of which was that fair use didn't have a word count limit, if you steal all of a joke, you've stolen. I left a link to fair use in Wikipedia, as I remember. This is another similar story, from the news today. For those creating web sites, it's something to remember; just copying something small doesn't mean you're protected by "fair use." http://www.allgov.com/news/unusual-news/lawsuit-accuses-conan-obrien-of-stealing-4-mediocre-jokes-150727?news=857053 http://www.allgov.com/news/unusual-news/lawsuit-accuses-cona...
