MISLEADING
VERY misleading mr geist
this isnt what it seems if you read the article.
IT is for educational material to be placed say on a server and then login/passworded so a student may get at it
this is in no way a everyone exception.
when i see the words
“for personal use exception” then things are better
until then all this damn idiot lawyering is just a waste of money of taxpayers and waste of time.
people are sick n tired a 17$ pop and popcorn
if you will.
