Copypasta from LinkedIn:

Recent blogs by KnowledgeRights21 blaming copyright and the creative industry for knowledge hampering instead of, for example, the enormous bureaucracy in place in Horizon Europe / European Commission grants is really something.

Don't get me wrong, I think #copyright should be reformed and in its current form is indeed strange - why can we copyright research articles for example?

One thing I love about digitising old documents is that they can add to other people's research jigsaws. It makes it feel worthwhile, and like the records of the past don't only belong to one institution or family or whatever (despite what various laws of ownership might say). It's about doing things together.

#Denmark takes a Viking swing at #VPN-enabled piracy - https://www.theregister.com/2025/12/15/denmark_vpn_ban/ denmark placing #copyright above #humanrights

Australia was bullied mercilessly by the US to match its copyright laws, including negotiations for the FTA that country just went and trashed.

Now Disney, one of the chief architects of those laws, has betrayed all of those so-called arguments and principles to throw in with OpenAI.

Can't trust these fuckwits. Unsure why we make any deals or maintain any alliances at all.
