Not a Copyright Violation[ Parent | Reply to This ] (none / 0) (#3)

I do not believe this statement is a correct interpretation of copyright: "if I copy and paste the specs on the monitor from the Dell website, I am infringing on the dell copyright somehow." This is information that Dell is making publicly available to describe its product.

As consumers, we need to be more assertive about protecting our right to use information and NOT let the vendors define what our copryright rights are.
