Earlier this week, I posted about how Warner Music Group had claimed I infringed their copyright when I posted a video with one of my own songs on it - a song they never had the copyright to, although they did formerly act as a distributor for the label I am signed to in the U.S.Then I saw this on reddit.com. Someone posted Martin Luther King's historical "I Have a Dream" speech and accompanied it with some creative typography. WMG removed the audio track claiming they owned the copyright. Words totally fail me.

copyrighting the words someone spoke is just plain alien behaviour.
All your words are belong to us.
Are you a bad enough dude to save your words?
I don't think Warner has a copyright on this, but the King Estate certainly does, and are pretty touchy about how it is used.
