I think that we need several words for different situations, so here's my proposal:
1. Obtaining a copy which is unavailable legitimately: snaffle or snarf 2. Obtaining a copy which is available, and which you have no copy of in an alternative medium: piracy hence pirate a copy 3. Making a copy of a pbook by obtaining a darknet copy: tenebroreticulography |

(and you are so lucky blink tags don't work!) And yes, I'm quite aware you evidently hate the concept of copyright so much you want a comprehensive private copy exemption, but some of us actually like copyright and would like to preserve it. Ben - When you get "tenebroreticulography" into a dictionary I'm going to care. Until then, it's going to reflect on everything you post as far as I'm concerned.

What do you mean? Did you miss my invisible <irony> tags - or did you think that I really thought that it would catch on!?

I think we should add an exception to copyright that says if you can say tenebroreticulography 10 times quickly on the witness stand, they automatically find you not guilty.

I don't hate copyright. But copyright isn't working for the digital age. It's founded in paper and corporations. It needs to be founded on content that is media neutral and stay away from corporations. |

I really, really dislike attempts to directly push new words in general. Either a word catches on because you use it, or it doesn't. Attempts to deliberately define the language is one of the reasons why we're speaking English, not French.

And while copyright is a mess, a strong non-commercial copying exemption as sought by the Piratepartys would rip a large chunk out of the market. I don't disagree change is needed, but that one isn't the right sort of change. (The only IP law I'm happy with is Trademark) |
