More tips on using copyrighted content

Jonathan Peters covers copyright, fair use, and the legalities of linking and embedding: "Embedding copyrighted content may be okay, but screenshotting it and posting the screenshot is not. That’s basically the electronic equivalent of making a copy of the work, putting it squarely in the crosshairs of copyright law. So, if you find content on social media and want to use it (e.g., in an online news story), embedding is the safest way to do it — not screenshotting."
