Pullman is writing in the next issue of the campaign group’s magazine in a dialogue with Cathy Casserly, chief executive of Creative Commons. Casserly argues that there is a lot wrong with copyright, which was created a long time ago. Casserly writes: “Copyright closes the door on the many ways that people can share, build upon and remix each other’s work, possibilities that we could not imagine when those laws were made.” She says artists need to think creatively about how they earn money from their work.
What is Casserly’s position on current copyright law?
It is outdated and too strict It is unable to protect authors from having their work shared, built upon and remixed It will allow artists to do more creative work It is a good compromise between the needs of artists and consumers
