  • It’s still an interesting question to know where to draw the line about reusing other works of art.

    Is taking a picture of a drawing and selling it with a filter fair? Our without filter? Is a recording of a recording where you tweak really little things fair?

    Where do you draw the line?

    Copyright started when French composers noticed people were using their music and they didn’t get anything from it. Are you ready as a professional musician to accept people monetising your work without your knowledge, consent and without you getting anything?

    What would be a good system? A system that can realistically be implemented as of today.


  • First of all, it’s a sponsored feature from the french ministry of education so I’ll drink to this.

    And it makes definitely sense in a context of smartphone for video use: you film something, trim it and upload it. No need of an external editor for simple stuff. Great for teachers or anybody using the platform as a free tool and not as an ideological platform.

    Though I agree with you, there are limits to the “only us” approach: on a bigger level, there’s been research showing that having constant validation from your peer group leads to less empathy and being less open towards other groups. Think about small right-ish groups, validating themselves because they only read things connecting to their ideas.

    Or the FOSS-Bros overreacting about GAFAM, harassing good minded FOSS persons because they are not “pure FOSS”, would happen less if they weren’t always validated by their own peer group. (nothing aboout FOSS, it’s just an example of community gone toxic)

    So yes, on a micro/personnal level, choose the instance closest to your interest/values. On a macro level, confront your ideas to other different ideas and it will lead to more tolerance and hopefully a better world
