Justice is sometimes moral, and sometimes it's not. It depends on the situation and the corresponding circumstances. When it's not, mercy is, and mercy is the suspension of justice.

The letter is addressed to him so therefore becomes HIS property, not mine. What he does with it afterwards is entirely up to him,
That is true but not always. There is a flaw in your statement. Let me illustrate. I have confidentiality agreements with my workers. I send them letters all of the time containing protected information. It is NOT entirely up to them to publish the letters I send them about company matters.

Actually, they do. Mike and Kim bring to light plenty of issues that they simply ignore. Instead of answering these issues, they play the legal game.
Tell it to the judge.
You do the same thing by ignoring the motives of the society and playing the legal game.
Legal proceedings is no game. Your theory of wt moral motives is no excuse to break the law. Your morality does not trump over the law. If you like it and believe it is better go eat a bolony sandwich.
Who's morality is better? Mine or WT? Let me humbly submit that it is mine.
you can believe that if you like but if KM are breaking the law the Courts will stop them.

Since WT information supposedly originates and is edited by Jehovah, does WT then have the right to claim copywrite on that information?
That is a moral question. You have your morality and wt has theirs. If you don't like wt morality go eat bananas and tuna fish or something. But if you break the law, wt will take you to Court and you are ofree to do the same thing if you don't like what wt does. If you don't think that is moral, Too Bad!!! Go start your own religious movement, and if your movement infringes on wt copyright, guess what? WT will see you in Court again, and if you don't like it?? Too Bad for you again!

@ 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.

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.

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.
