To touch on my previous post, whether copyright should exist at all, the law should at least be written such that it promotes progress (U.S. Const. art. I, § 8, cl. 8). If the statutes are interpreted in a way by which copyright instead stifles innovation, it means the law has failed at its original purpose of serving the public interest.

#copyright #DMCA #DRM #intellectualProperty #publicInterest #USConstitution

Picture this: a decompiler that performs a perfect 1:1 conversion of machine code back into source code that is identical to the code from which the converted software was compiled. That would be a gift for modders of games and applications, and for privacy-concerned individuals who want maximum transparency, but the courts may not like it under our current precedent.

#decompilation #copyright #DMCA #modding #openSource #piracy #software #USLaw

Religious orgs abusing copyright to unmask critics is terrifying, especially when “disfellowshipping” can nuke someone’s whole social life. 🧩

EFF is defending an anonymous Jehovah’s Witness who built a research/archive site, arguing their work is fair use and DMCA subpoenas can’t be a shortcut to crush dissent. 🛡️
