Feel like taking off the tail-end of the post's name hurts it a lot. Because I came here ready to argue that while copying isn't theft, it definitely hurts the bottom line of indie musicians, writers, moviemakers, etc. But, in the case presented in the article, I 100% agree with the author. Claiming covers, interpretation videos, etc as "copyright infringement" is, to put it mildly, a stretch.
I like the sentiment that censorship robs people, it's nicely spun and true, by and large. But that mostly applies to the kind of 'censorship' described in the post which, if I'm being honest, I'm not even sure I'd call censorship. Feels a bit of a reach, semantically speaking.
