HTLit covers a coyright debacle

A magazine editor with years of experience thinks works on the web are public domain!

Go over to HTLit and take a look. Feel free to follow their links to protest, too.

    Wow! Hard to believe that a magazine editor is completely unfamiliar w/ fair use?!

      I know, doesn’t that seem odd? I mean, it seems unrealistic. I know as a systems
      admin I worked closely with the law team, especially with email issues. I just
      think there must, MUST be more to this story. But then again, I find that many
      people have no idea what the Internet is at all. So, it’s possible.

      Peace!
