Teaching #copyright this semester is a good reminder that there is a serious frog-boiling problem in IP. People talk about copyright like it's some kind of well-reasoned and founded enterprise, and there certainly is an endless parade of case law. But almost nothing is coherent or consistent or cleanly moored to constitutional principles. Almost every doctrine is framed by cases bursting at the seams with amateur art criticism, bias, intrinsic and extrinsic contradictions, and vibes-determinism.
