@ OC floods the thread with legalese and links to views and books having no legal merit.
I am eating potato chips in reply to your post. If KM is fighting for fair use, they may or may not win -by the way.
due to watchtower flagging the mike & kim videos on youtube for copyright, youtube is giving them 6 days before they are shutting down their entire youtube channel.
can you help with a mass downloading program and then reuploading them on a mirror ?
would hate to lose all those good videos!

The WT are not really interested in protecting their copyright.
Fair Use legal proceedings will decide. A person can plead his cause in Court pro-se if he cannot afford an attorney. All that the person has to do is to explain his side to the judge. You are using excuses for breaking the law. Explain your excuses in Court.

My point here is that the WTS presents a less than shining example in the use of others work.
Maybe or maybe not but that is not decided in a discussion Forum. The point here is what JD highlighted in his post - the consequences of loosing to those men with the black robes that I alluded to in my previous post.
Isis for example encroach on human life and property for their moral reasons.They feel that countries like the US, the land of the free and the home of the brave, where freedom rings and justice prevails is doing many immoral acts ( Imagine that ! ) and that gives them the moral right to do what they do -whatever the heck they want. Problem for them is that a lot people are opposed to their actions and not necessarily the morality behind their actions- only their actions. So getting back to JD, there are legal consequences for their actions. Moral consequences of immortality should be adjudicated and enforced by someone having moral subject matter jurisdiction.
some people believe that stealing, lying and killing, is not moral.
some people don't.. does morality exist?
if so, prove it..
how some individuals and organizations have used copyright laws, not to protect their intellectual rights, but to suppress legitimate criticism.
That's what Fair Use legal proceedings are all about.

Why does it bother the watchtower, the harm that is caused to the watchtower.
Hmmmmm, stop killing chickens and pay attention!! Maybe because it is their property? It's like this, as I explained before. When somebody owns something, they don't have to give it away or let others borrow it. And they don't have to give any explanations. People have the same right to their morality and motives as you do believe it or no.
You deviated from the obvious answer and keep going right back to what is legal and not.
Well, again as them papers the process server hands you with all the explanations you seek, you have your morality and wt has theirs. You believe yours is better and that gives you the right to infringe on wt copyright. WT believes theirs is better and wants to stop you from doing so. WT tells you to stop. You refuse. You pray to your god and he tells you to infringe (Isis prays too by the way) WT prays to theirs.
Who's morality is better, yours or wt? Those men dressed in black robes that I told you about don't care. And God wil decide which morality he chooses. -In the meantime it can go either way. WT may have to part with their copyright or you may find yourself parting (immorally in your book) with those little pieces of paper (they call greenbacks in the US) that people use to buy food and pay for legal fees and pay for registering copyrights. The ones you get in exchange for your hard work that people use to purchase things they need or like to own. And although it may be immoral to you if those men sitting on benches force you stop and separate you from those pieces of paper, there are those that don't care and don't agree with your morals. But you are free to believe in whatever morals you like.

The WT are not really interested in protecting their copyright. What they are interested in doing is making it hard for critics to produce content.
Yeah, like if you found someone trespassing on your property and he was fishing or something and you kick him out. The owner does not want to protect his property, he just doesn't want the person trespassing to fish. You make a lot of sense.

Of course other creatures are affected by pollution.
I didn't disagree with you or are am trying to find flaw with your view. Actions can affect others physically, emotionally, etc. either directly or indirectly, and that goes for pollution too. I was just looking for another dimension if such exists and expressing my feelings, not making any statements. You can expand more on your view; I am all ears.

Agree with konceptual bout the double standards of WT.
Whether or not wt actually used copyrighted material without authorization in the past is not a legal defense nor a justification for KM to infringe on wt copyright. Using your standard though, everybody should be allowed to infringe on KM based on them using wt copyright and it would be a double standard in they protected their property. According to your standard, it is open game on KM.

The moral dimension of dumping rubbish in the ocean comes from the fact that conscious creatures will be affected by our pollution.
I agree but I was thinking in terms of when creatures are not affected like when people dump trash for example and it affects the beauty and naturalness of nature or leaving a whole bunch of stuff on the moon or in outer space, graffiti on trees, throwing beautiful roses into the sewer or apples or food, not because it affects others but because It feels wrong. People do some crazy things.
Another thing, I respect people's rights but I feel very very hurt to see someone with tattoos all over their body. It does not hurt people from having them but it hurts me.

That`s pretty much it. Glad you can see my point.
You want to do whatever the heck you want and believe that it is immoral to stop you. We'll just see then what happens after to your morality if it pretty much gets to the point when all those immoral people wearing black robes sitting on benches force you to stop by making you volunteer at the local park nearby to push up daisies -if that's what it takes to stop you in the meantime.
