There wasn't much of an Internet in 1980. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/...ternet-les-horribles-cernettes_n_1662823.htmlI've used the Internet since 1980.
Yeah, but it's important to understand what "fair use" constitutes under the law.If you uploaded it to the Internet, you make it available for "fair use".
Am I missing something? This citation appears to be a university's website, NOT a US Federal Government website. And, FWIW, I didn't see anything regarding still photographs mentioned.http://www.asc.upenn.edu/dmca/
You can also crack a DVD and use short clips from it in your course.
Intended educational use is NOT a carte blance to take anything and everything and use it however you wish. I would also suggest that if the software is by-passing Flickr's user-account protection system, that its legitimacy is at the very least question inappropriate.A legitimate piece of software that facilitates a legitimate use of files on the Internet, and for educational purposes. I cannot see the difference between that and using Google to find and download articles on converting a zeiss Sonnar to Leica mount.
I'm not sure that I can count the number of ways in which this statement is wrong!...If you uploaded it to the Internet, you make it available for "fair use".
True, but not all uses would qualify as 'fair use' as defined by US Copyright law. U.S. Copyright Office - Fair UseIf you uploaded it to the Internet, you make it available for "fair use".
Not taking a shot at you here Derrel, but this comment is something that I notice becoming more and more prevalent as a general attitude. Why do people feel that uploading an image to a 'site on the Internet is somehow different than publishing it in a magazine as far as sharing/copyright, etc?...If a person uploads a photograph to the internet (web,discussion forum,e-mail list, message board, USENET, etc.) then he has, based upon his actions and the nature of humankind, decided to share the image with, potentially, hundreds of thousands of nameless, faceless people. Whining about largely theoretical cases or possible cases of copyright infringement which MIGHT occur after having uploaded photos to the world wide web seems really dickish. And actually, rather stupid. It's like whining that somebody took a $20 bill you left just sitting on a bus stop bench. Yeah--somebody took it...you f&%#ing left it sitting unattended in a public location!!!
"D'oh!!!"
Ooohhh... VERY interesting point!It's entirely possible that blackboard is using a flickr-provided API, and that it is the API that is not respecting the user's settings.
