squidgestatusRight now the US Copyright Office is taking comments on FAN BASED PROJECTS. Well, not exactly, but more how the few companies that own EVERYTHING these days want to use AI to make things like making fan-based videos more difficult. They are taking comments right now, and you should leave one!

If you comment (US only, please!), say something like "I'm a fan-based content creator that relies on fair-use laws for the content I create. These regulations would infringe on my right to create fan works based on fair-use laws, letting a few corporations decide what we can and cannot produce. This is not right, and the regulations should not go forward."
Feel free to signal boost!
