I don't think the law goes quite that far ...
Maybe not if you're Bill Gates or Warren Buffet. But I can get a lot.
Oooh, powerful!
More than most people have.
Sounds verrry impressive. Can you get more out of me than I have, and
then give some back? I promise I'll donate to the Red Cross... What
about blood from a stone?
BTW I'd also like to see evidence for what law prevents linking to
someone else's work.
Who said anything about preventing linking? I never did.

Overall, though, this argument seems fairly pointless, since you're both
deliberately talking at cross-purposes: Jerry is talking about using the
law to fight, while Zenaan is talking about fighting the law. Both are
useful in different (and probably sometimes the same) circumstances.

Yes, and I have used the law to fight violations of my copyrights. And
won.
Bully for you :)
The law is there for a purpose. Remember, those of us who make a living
off of our intellectual property like to eat, also.
By all means, I support you in making as much money off your libre
community-building licenses as you can.
Now: if you're man enough, we could set up a really sporting game,
with rules as follows:
1) You post some of your intellectual property.
1.b) provide copyright notice, license warnings etc
2) We'll violate your copyright. Intimately + against your consent.
3) You profit...
Up for it?
I know I am :)
