What is the best way of streaming/recording me learning a subject on Twitch/YouTube but avoiding copyright over sharing the contents of a book for example. - Lemmy.World

Forgive the perhaps stupid question, but I was curious as to how to go about streaming/recording me learning a subject but not being cancelled for using pirated content like a book. Perhaps I can just not show the books contents at allandd have it on a different monitor but perhaps someone here has some insight into this?

Depending on the content digital versions of your book may already be available. I doubt may people would be able to tell the different or care for that matter. If you wanted people to be able to follow along you could just make a note of what page number and book you are using

If you stick to freely available books, then you can share them without fear of reprecussions.

For example, Wikimedia, the organization behind wikipedia, also has a project called [en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Main_Page]

They have good tutorials, like this one: en.wikibooks.org/…/Non-Programmer's_Tutorial_for_…

There is also the sister project, which sometimes uses wikibooks as a companion/textbooks, like

There are other free textbooks, like libretexts

For programming/cybersecurity related things, there is no restriction on doing things like CTF’s or other publicly available activities on stream as well.

It’d help if you mention the subject you want to learn, that way we can point you to high quality resources, as sometimes they can be buried in the corners of the internet. I highly doubt that whatever you are learning is only available through textbooks or other copyrighted material.
