A comment on TPP could thwart computer security research and tinkering. Parent comment

This comment is doubly a non-sequitur, since nothing I've said anywhere would give you evidence about what I believe about fair use, and orphan works have nothing to do with this thread --- the term appears nowhere in the Slate story, and, speaking as a security researcher, has very little to do with security research.

Moreover, the part of your comment concerning orphan works was added to your comment, without remarking about the update, after I wrote the comment you just replied to.

Please stop doing this.

(I fleshed this comment out after writing it and then noticing that you'd asked me to respond to an edit you wrote after I wrote my comment.)

Sorry, I did not see your response until I had finished writing/editing my incomplete comment. I'm on a mobile device and editing is slow and requires partial saves, in case the browser flushes the tab from RAM. There are three quotes on Orphan Works, the first one was there from the beginning, the other two were added as fast as I could.
