      People can and will do that Big publishing houses cannot, because of the litigational threat.

      While I don’t uncritically support one side or the other, there are provisions for protecting the small and large alike, and I think there’s no easy answer.

      Everyone thinks the problem is easy to solve until a specific incidence lands in their lap.

          yes. I’m saying there’s pros and cons to both sides so the solution is not to simply abandon the rule of law, nor is it to pretend that the law fixes everything and operates well.
