[DeTomaso] Copyright law

Mon May 23 23:52:14 EDT 2016

Do you or the forum have stated "terms of usage".

Posts on most forums become the copyrighted property of those forums according to the terms of usage. And that is perfectly legal and binding.

    Thanks Ken.  The issue is a disgruntled former poster of the email list has sent me a request to purge every post he has made to the list.  He is claiming he owns the copyright to anything he has written.  Is he correct?
Thanks,Kurt

Generally, you are not free to use a copyrighted work in its entirely, or substantial portions, but under the fair use, you can copy short sections of it if you are commenting on them, not reproducing the work as a whole.  If it's something simple like a photo or painting, you cannot reproduce it in its original entirely, but I think there was a case where the court found that a low resolution thumb nail version of as copyrighted painting did not infringe because it would never be blown up and used as art.
This looks pretty good:
