A startling incident prescient of the Oh-So-Supreme Court’s ruling (File-sharing suffers major defeat) occured last week as one was waiting for Batman to begin at the local cineplex.
We were prevented by the Anal Manager from taking photos of a poster as it violated copyright law. And he warned us against taking a picture of the building (!!) as that would infringe copyright as well.
It was as if one was drawn into an episode of “Twilight Zone”. So does that mean we are infringing copyright when we see the movie? They might
as well ban us from watching the film - in case we verbally reproduced the storyline to our friends.
