Science booklet for kids teaches copyright instead
Matt picked up a National Geographic science booklet for kids and discovered that it contains subtle propaganda for copyright maximalism:
"Suppose you have permission to photocopy the picture of Paramecium, and you enlarge it to twice its size. Would the magnification of x110 still be correct? Explain."Link (Thanks, Matt!)Note how it says, "suppose you have permission to photocopy the picture," instead of, "suppose you photocopy the picture," or even, "photocopy the picture."
Derrrrrr. Somehow the issue of copyright infringement has made its way explicitly and incongruously into a children's science booklet.
