LOL, okay, you go argue "it's semantics!" with IP lawyers, I'll wait.

And you still clearly don't understand the differences between a concrete item and the nebulous right-of-access involved in intangible products.

[(Anonymous)]

They seem to think it's the same thing, since sharing is considered stealing. And a physical piece of media isn't intangible, considering it's physical.

For fuck's sakes...

I appreciate you're probably from Generation Entitlement and think that all content should be Free Information (except, funnily enough, when it comes to THEIR OWN creative content, nope, that's off limits), but let's try this anyway.

SHARING IS NOT STEALING.

DISTRIBUTING SOMETHING YOU DO NOT HAVE PERMISSION TO DISTRIBUTE IS NOT LEGAL. YOU DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO DO THAT.

[(Anonymous)]

IT'S GOOD THAT I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT DISTRIBUTING THINGS THEN.

And lol no, nice assumptions, there. I accept that if I put something that I create out there into the world, I no longer have an ounce of control over it. And I never said a goddamned thing about everything being free. Half of this has involved a discussion of purchases, which kinda means that I obviously don't have any problem with people selling their shit if they wish to and are able.

[(Anonymous)]

Then what are you talking about? You've derailed this with a halfassed and illinformed argument about people making copies of fanfics, and someone said that they thought having those copies around -- i.e. that distribution could continue even after they'd exerted their right to remove the fic -- was disrespectful.

And now you're contradicting yourself. If there was no control over the work out there, then the entire economy of media as a consumer good would not exist. Obviously you have control. That's what copyright is for. That's what contracts are for. That's what your publishing company's legal department is for.

We're copyrighting and getting contracts for fanfic, now? I mean unscrubbed fanfic that's going up on an archive site?
