“Fair use will not save you.”
—Andy Baio
Cut, copy, paste. The ability to reuse and remix is so deeply baked into our tools, it’s rewritten our culture. We learn to make great art by copying, and we participate in our culture by reusing and modifying what we see. But the law hasn’t caught up with our changing values, effectively criminalizing the creativity of millions. Cover songs on YouTube, fanfic, mashups, and supercuts all violate copyright, and lawyers are starting to find new tools to discover and enforce infringement. Welcome to the new Prohibition.

It’s the nature of being an artist to be consumed always with doubt. That’s what fuels your exploration. It’s the nature of being a salesperson to suppress all doubt and speak in exclamation points.
