Summary
Large corporations increasingly use copyright and trademark law to target fan-created content, even when it is transformative or non-commercial. This creates fear and legal vulnerability for indie artists who build communities around existing IPs. Existing legal protections like fair use are uncertain and expensive to assert, leaving creators with no affordable way to fight back or protect their derivative works.
