From: Sandy Thatcher <[log in to unmask]> Date: Thu, 9 Apr 2015 00:07:47 -0500 How, exactly, does fair use come into play if there are specific terms in a license that you are violating because you think fair use gives you the right to do so? Is there any case where a judge has decided that fair use trumps contract law? Sandy Thatcher > From: "Anne E.
