[Opensim-users] Fair Use principles

[dz]

Karen...

Thanks for the guidelines   They are very well done....

However...  Just to make sure we are clear, I want to point out that even
this document is quite clear..   So I will quote...

"The principles concern the unlicensed fair use of copyrighted materials for
education,
not the way those materials were acquired. When a user’s copy was obtained
illegally
or in bad faith, that fact may affect fair use analysis."

Your Argument for fair use  does NOT apply to materials obtained
illegally.    I'm sure you understand that, knowing the "contract" with
Linden Labs was violated to obtain the content we most often discuss, means
that fair use no longer applies.

If you know its stolen, fair use is not an excuse.
