Celebrate Fair Use Day

For those who did not know, including myself, today, July 11, is Fair Use Day.

It is a day to celebrate the freedoms that fair use gives us and, according to the organizers, “Exercise your Fair Use rights or contact a corporation or government of your choosing and let them know you want Fair Use rights and you want them protected.”

Though I am definitely very late with this information, having just found out myself, it is still a day well worth noting and celebrating.

So, as you settle in this evening, take advantage of your fair use rights and exercise your freedoms some.  Enjoy the freedoms that you have because so many want to take them away!
