Yeah, that’s probably it. I’m amazed at how many people think the law works like magic spells. If I say just the right words in just the right order, I will be magically protected by or from The Law™. I have a friend who is definitely not a sov cit, but he posts drum covers on his YouTube channel, and he always includes this statement about not owning the copyright or something. I can’t even remember all of it, but he thinks that will protect him from a take down notice or infringement claim. I’ve seen a lot of people do that. It doesn’t work that way. And this friend’s husband is a paralegal. He should know better. In fairness, our legal system is really big and complex, and I can see how that could seem like magic to someone who doesn’t know much about it.
