  1. Scammers who made $23.4 million from Content ID must pay back only $3.4 million to cheated artists

    In Walled Culture the book (free digital versions available), I linked to a fascinating Content ID scam that TorrentFreak has been reporting on for some years. It revolved around an extremely simple abuse of YouTube’s Content ID system. Built by Google for a cost of around $100 million, Content ID is a fingerprinting system that is designed to identify and manage …

  2. Another example of how incompatible copyright ©️ is with both art & creativity: the new battle field for Big Content is to try and stop ⛔ generative AI, and the #RIAA is ramping up its efforts - @glynmoody walledculture.org/the-copyrigh #GenerativeAI #Songmastr #TorrentFreak #Music

  9. Copyright madness: YouTube seems to doubt whether Shakespeare is in the public domain

    One of the darker threads of Walled Culture the book (free digital versions available) is how complex copyright enforcement systems can be abused, for example by sending Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) takedown requests for material that is perfectly legal. A recent post on the Public Citizen blog offers an extreme example of this blight. Here’s the summary of what happened:

    When […]

  10. How to make money by acknowledging the difference between analogue and digital

    One of the central ideas of Walled Culture the book (free digital versions available) is that there is a fundamental difference between analogue and digital, and that copyright fails to recognise that. Instead, it seeks to impose what is an inherently analogue approach based on scarcity to the online world where abundance is the norm. The very different dynamics in […]

  12. Newspaper publishers’ obsession with link and snippet taxes is bad for society – and bad for them

    Traditional newspapers have been complaining about the rise of the digital world for decades. Their discontent derives from the fact that they failed to recognise opportunities early on, leaving the field open for a new generation of born-digital companies to meet the demand for alternative ways to access the news. Rather than trying to understand the dynamics of the …

  14. There is no ongoing independent backup of Twitter: that means that if the bird flies to infinity and beyond, we lose a collective modern cultural artifact, and that because of ill-adapted copyright rules - @glynmoody #AccessToCulture #copyright #culture walledculture.org/if-twitter-g
