RE: Flagging is not censorship

in #flags6 years ago

I watched four movie trailers...(though I didn't want to...lol), one came with a warning at the end that said it was copyrighted and the trailer couldn't be use for blah, blah and so on, another just said Imax was a registered trademark of Imax, and the other two had nothing at the end. So I guess it's a mixed bag, if they don't label it copyrighted material I would image all is fair game. I have seen some things removed from Utube before that song artist have done that say this was removed for copyright reasons....and I've also seen where in news articles they've placed a video off utube in the article and you go to click on it and it will say the video was removed due to copyright.

Sort:  

That's all fine if you're sharing it on Facebook, the moment you start profiting from it, I guarantee if Hollywood saw it they would be all over it with lawyers.

Probably so, especially the ones that explicitly state at the end you can't do that....if caught he's looking at huge fines, maybe jail time...I don't know, having his fifteen minutes of fame being made an example of comes to mind also...I think that's what the record industry did, choose a couple particular people and splashed their cases across national headlines.
