That might be possible to do in a text-only format, or even in video format without using any clips from his films, but the experience would not be anywhere near the same.
Why would a reviewer that cannot create his own commercial quality video material be allowed to benefit from commercial quality movie clips? If they can only create text content, they should get benefits of the text content, not benefit from someone else's movie clips. Some of the scenes in movies could cost 2 million bucks to create, but this reviewer fails to follow copyright and thus gets the material for free? Why did the first guy need to pay 2 million bucks for the material, when 2nd person got it for free? Shouldn't it be more fair if both of them paid 1 million bucks?
What none of them do is try to market their own 3dsmax ripoff as the next best thing since sliced bread,
Yes, the laziness is spreading all over the world. You've now proven that usa is not immune to this laziness problem. If software developers cannot even create their own software, at some point they will lose respect of their peers when they only managed to implement someone else's projects, and did nothing on their own. If software developers do not keep starting new projects when they're bored then they should find some other way to create their own copyrghted works.
And yet, you can’t show off a single game made by a third party that was made with Meshpage.
I haven't received any emails from users of meshpage or builder tool. I know there are hundreds of downloads of the tool, but the users don't tend to bother to contact me after downloading the tool. So I dunno what they do with the tool.
But text can’t duplicate the experience of seeing a clip from a movie.
Duplicating the movie experience isn't valuable. Whatever the reviewer can contribute is valuable. Just ripping off someone else's movie clips isn't valuable. You actually need to create completely new content to cross the valuable treshold.
as jeopardizing your supposed enforcement of "stricter copyright law" by not managing or banning these users.
These "users" are not publishing anything. They are creating new works by using the builder tool and connecting graph nodes to build more and more complex copyrighted works in gaming area. I.e. any publish operations are outside the scope of builder tool and thus responsibility of the users themselves.
Fair use also protects people writing articles or creating videos that critique music, films, games, etc.
This copyright exception does not exist in finland (and probably also in EU).
Instead of blatant copyright infringement with ripped off clips from the movies, we actually write text descriptions of the critique in magazines and newspapers. It doesn't even need screenshot from the movie and you definitely does not need to build your critique youtube video solely from movie clips.
the government does not work like a search engine.
to participate in government's keyword mapping system, you need $200 money and fill in paperwork for your very own trademark. After govt approves your trademark, you'll be noticed by govt's systems and can benefit from your work.
if you think that speculative development of a piece of software entitles you to an income.
So you're saying that software developers are not entitled compensation for their work? What is the reason to discard whole occupations from compensation? The universities are claiming that software development is real work, and they actually take your money based on the claims that their teachings on software development are helping people get proper work from the employment market.
You think any reason that is a legal response against a copyright infringement claim is a "stupid reason".
Usually those reasons are not holding water under proper evaluation. Their ideas is that if they move server to other counrty or store only urls to the pirated content in their server that they'd protected by fair use against copyright infringements that happen in their pirate box user interface. Guess what, court only need to look at how users find the pirated content and determine that if user can find the pirated material, then courts can do that same process, and once they get access to the data, all their fair use defenses should go to trashcan. This is why those defenses are stupid, they simply never hold water. You just need to follow the same process that the end users of your pirate box is doing to find the infringements.
And that's not including the comments that you made before you were dumb enough to sign up for an account and have all your comments trackable.
Are you really claiming that techdirt's web site design is so poor that it takes long time for real end users to sign up for an account and have comments trackable?
Maybe you should recommend some fixes to the web designers who work on techdirt?
everything that is fair use should be illegal - except, of course, when you're the one doing it.
1) fair use has nothing to do with blender
2) fair use is another name for "we did copyright infringement, but we consider it legal for some stupid reason"
3) fair use is only considered after the activity has been declared copyright infringing
4) fair use is only considered after both parties have collected millions of lawyer's fees
5) fair use scope is very small -- usually 3 words can be copied from copyrighted work to get it accepted as fair use
6) basically users of copyrighted works cannot ever rely on fair use to save their ass in copyright infringement lawsuit
> > how he'd be a millionaire if only his more competent competition was somehow removed.
the fact that what Blender et al are doing is in fact not copyright infringement
I've only demanded removal of people who commit copyright infringement. So if blender isn't doing it, then their removal is not requested (and your message isn't relevant). It's enough to get rid of pirates so that their user bases will need to find more legal alternatives.
It's none of my damn business to help you not lose money from your idiocy.
Yes, but problem seems to be that you are not able to solve the problem. This means that when you get old enough to start businesses yourself, it's going to be spectacular failure. You cannot avoid that outcome, unless you have ideas how to avoid the $48 -problem.
even the troll admits that his attempt at copyright trolling would fail
If the copyright trolling fails and settlement money or damage awards are not coming to this direction, then you have to figure out how to increase the $48 money amount associated with meshpage's development. I'm waiting for your solution to this problem.
Is the deadline a part of the version of copyright you're hallucinating as well?
Yes. To have copyright on your writings, you must be able to output that text to some medium. Copyright law says that the writing needs to be in some medium. Thus deadlines are needed, so that we don't need to wait until heat death of the universe to obtain his manuscript.
you're really just helping make the point that your fantasy version of copyright could not work in the real world.
That's quite bold statement, after watching copyright work properly for last 200 years, now when the label says there's deadline in 2 weeks, you decide that the stuff that worked fine for 200 years is now not working at all.
