Well, you quoted some legal maxims.. Roughly:WFX wrote: Consuetudo ex certa causa rationabili usitate privat communem legem et Alienatio licet prohibeatur, consensu tamen omnium in quorum favorem prohibita est potest fieri; et quilibet potest renunciare juri pro se introducto et illud quod alias licitum non est, necessitas facit licitum, et necessitas inducit privilegium quod jure privatur.
Anyways, good luck with your endeavors.
Take Care,
WFX.
A custom founded on a certain and reasonable ground supersedes the common law and while alienation may be restrained, yet it may be made with the consent of all those in whose favor it was restrained and any one may renounce a law introduced for his own benefit and that which is not otherwise permitted, necessity allows, and necessity makes a privilege which supersedes the law.
Not to go too deep into that - copyright law is quite straightforward in most of the countries. There are also Constitutional Court cases that have to be taken into account. But hey we are slipping a bit too deep. Sufficient to say that in correlation to a talk on this forum regarding piracy hurting the business,I just wanted to point out something many don’t know. For example, I legally cannot use Pierre’s photo in my photostream (although published here), without his consent…
Thanks again!
And, huh, we must stop reediting our messages while we are writing posts to each other...
