responds to::Lawrence Lessig/blog/2002/11/27/1203 when posted::March 25, 2003 2:09 AM author::krishna if as you say, a large portion of old literature(50+ years old) is not commercially exploited, why doesnt someone in a country outside america try and put these up on the internet, if someone does hold the rights to that piece of work and wantsto enforce it that person can.

he can inform the webmaster and the webmaster shall remove the piece. Kind of works on the principle that copyright protection is not granted on creation but on request. It might be against the law, but with the law in this case making very little sense, an innovative attempt at trying to expose its fallacies is worth a shot.
