> Also even if it would work (which it very much doesn't), whether it "hurts the original publisher" is actually literally one of the criteria for considering something fair use or not. Look it up.

I don’t know why you’re repeating the stuff I just wrote like I didn’t. My point is that this is only relevant for the fair use defense and not copyright in general.

Here’s what I said:

> The “does it hurt the original publisher” is a test for fair use BTW, just because you hurt the sales of someone doesn’t necessarily make it copyright infringement. That is only relevant if you try to defend using fair use (and it’s only part of the test that’s used to decide fair use).
