Whatevs, dude or dudette. Fact is that xrtrlaevs so-called fact is unmitigated bullshit. Of course, pretty much nobody in this space understands any aspect of IP law whatsoever, so I guess I should not be surprised.
Incidentally, what value do you think
you have added to this branch of the thread?
The fact that CSW submitted for copyright something that has been in the public domain for years (the bitcoin whitepaper)
Whatever gives you the idea that the Bitcoin white paper is public domain?
He didn't say it "is" public domain, he said its been in the public domain, because nobody was too big of an ass to attempt to copyright it until Craig came along.
How convenient for the next public display of ignorance to come so quickly. Copyright is established the instant a work is affixed in tangible form. That copyright exists fully independent if any registration thereof. Absent any explicit delegation of rights to the public at large
by its creator, the Bitcoin white paper is
not public domain.
