Let’s Talk Copyright

The whole use of full feeds by other people in a cloak of 2.0 commercialism is sad. It’s sad that extremists in the copyright debate are claiming that not allowing anyone to republish your full content for commercial purposes means you create a walled garden, particularly when services such as Fav.or.it are creating their own walled gardens off the effort of others.

So let’s talk copyright. I walk through as rationally and sensibly as I can copyright as I’ve always understood it within blogging, based on years working in the space and also handling copyright requests in the video above.
