I don't need no stinkin' context.
Mar. 1st, 2009 06:00 pmI'm curious to see some results from my personal Peanut Gallery, on this.
As always, poll results do not indicate what the law *is*. I just want to know what people *think* the law is. For the benefit of this, I'm assuming that we're discussing copyright law as it applies to countries which are subject to the Berne Convention.
[Poll #1357882]

You mean, my answer to question 5 or to question 6?

Date: 2009-03-02 01:40 am (UTC)Fair use is a four-part test, where two of the factors are "amount used" and "purpose of the use." The other two are "effect" and "nature of the work."
Parody is a fair use defense, per Acuff-Rose.
Estoppel has a bunch of meanings, you know.
I bet there are more affirmative defenses than I listed. I only listed the ones I was sure about.
The image linking could depend on policy of the owner. Personally, I think linking without images is both legal and most correct.

Date: 2009-03-02 03:36 am (UTC)Sorry, I thought at first you meant a PREVIOUS post, not this one. :P My bad.
Yeah.. My eyes tend to go from subject to poll. I missed the text in between. Again, my bad.

Date: 2009-03-02 01:38 pm (UTC)And yes, several of the questions have intentionally tricky, misleading, or redundant answers. But take a look at the difference in the results for "Parody" versus "Fair Use" and I think you'll start to see why I split them up that way.
