Copyright and irony.

Good article here about the problems of modern copyright law and the way the law's original intent is being twisted by corporations. All very well and good, but not why I'm linking to it. Go read the copyright notice at the bottom.

Interesting article but he's wrong on lots of counts; then again it's four years old, so things like the DMCA and EUCD weren't around.

On a related note I've blogged about Lawrence Lessig's Free Culture, which is excellent stuff, and I've written my own scribbles on the subject. I wish I shared Soup's optimism.

Nice disclaimer though.
