Are You a Copyright Criminal?
Have you ever...
...watched a video clip on YouTube?
...recorded a TV show to watch later?
...viewed Facebook from a school machine?
...written fan fiction?
...forwarded an email without permission?
...posted anonymously on a discussion site?
...downloaded or edited a mash-up?
...transferred a DVD to watch on your iPod?
...made a parody of a corporate logo?
