Classici Stranieri

*How [defunct] Beloved Indie Blog “The Hairpin”Turned Into an AI
Clickbait Farm.* The article reports that some businesses are
systematically buying expired domain names of sites that were of value
once, and doing this to them.

The copyright on the articles formerly posted on that blog site did
not expire with the site’s domain. What the site is described as
doing to some of those articles sounds like copyright infringement to
me. This article does not say who holds those copyrights, or how the
clickbait farmer could have found those old articles.

You may have heard that I advocate major relaxation of copyright law.
If the changes I propose there were carried out, that would not alter
the legal situation of this issue.
