"copyright warriors"

do you care about what is right, or what you like?

Both, actually. I can easily echo this question back to the people I call copyright warriors. Do they care about what is right or what they like? Right would be that everyone took an objective and unbiased look at the new technology and how to incorporate it into their work, instead of seeing only and aggressively clinging to their crumbling business models.

no you are now just writing what you like.

Is it right to use someone elses work without asking nor paying for it?

There is no simple answer to that. It clearly depends on the person whose work I use, on the purpose (fair use, inspiration), on the credit that I give, on the way, society benefits from either them clinging to their business model or me being allowed to use their work, on so many different things that there simply is no simple answer.

Of course the unbiased side completely agrees with you at every step.

What a scam.
