+has its heart in the right place as it objects to some of the unjust
+extensions of copyright power, so I wish I could support it. However,
+it falls far short of what is needed.</p>
+
+<p>Some flaws are at the level of implicit assumptions. The manifesto
+frequently uses <a href="/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html">propaganda
+terms</a> of the copyright industry, such as
+<a href="/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Protection">“copyright
+protection”</a>. These terms were chosen to lead people to
+sympathize with the copyright industry and its demands for power.</p>
+
+<p>The manifesto and its signatories use the term “intellectual
+property”, which confuses the issue of copyright by lumping it
+together with a dozen other laws that have nothing significant in
+common.
+(See <a
href="/philosophy/not-ipr.html">http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/not-ipr.html</a>
+for more explanation about this point.) Ironically it uses the term
+first in a sentence which points out that this manifesto is concerned
+only with copyright law, not with those other laws. That is with good
+reason: the other laws are not relevant to copying and using published
+works. If we seek to teach the public to distinguish between these
+laws, we should avoid setting an example which spuriously lumps them
+together.</p>
+
+<p>General Principle 2 repeats the common error that copyright should
+balance the public interest with “protecting and rewarding the
+author”. This error interferes with proper judgment of any
+copyright policy question, since that should be based on the public
+interest.
+<a
href="/philosophy/misinterpreting-copyright.html">http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/misinterpreting-copyright.html</a>
+explains this error and how to avoid it.</p>
+
+<p>It would be difficult to stand aside from a campaign for the right
+goals merely because it was written with unclear words. However, the
+manifesto falls far short in its specific goals too. It is not that I
+oppose them. Any one of its demands, individually, would be a step
+forward, even though the wording of some of them discourages me from
+signing my name to them.</p>
+
+<p>Rather the problem is that it fails to ask for the most important
+points. I cannot say, “This manifesto is what I stand
+for.” I cannot say, “I support what's in this
+manifesto,” unless I can add, equally visibly, “But it
+fails to mention the most important points of all.”</p>
+
+<p>General Principle 5 opposes contracts that restrict use of copies
+of public domain works. But where we most need to oppose such
+contracts is where they apply to works that are still copyrighted
+(this is how Amazon tries to claim that you don't own the e-book that
+you bought). Likewise, General Principle 5
+condemns <acronym title="Digital Restrictions
Management">DRM</acronym>,
+but only when it applies to a public domain work. In effect, it
+legitimizes most real DRM by omitting it from criticism.</p>
+
+<p>I've saved the biggest omission for last. General Recommendation 9
+calls for allowing “personal copying” of copyrighted
+works. Since it omits the issue of the freedom to share copies of
+published works with others, it fails to address the nastiest aspect
+of copyright: the
+vicious <a
href="http://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/war-on-sharing-riaa-lawsuits">War
+on Sharing</a> that the entertainment companies are now waging.</p>
+
+<p>The demands and recommendations of the Public Domain Manifesto
+would be a step forward. It may do some good if it inspires people
+who have accepted the industry position to begin to doubt it.
+However, if we adopt this manifesto as our goal, it will distract us
+from what we really need to fight for.</p>
+
+<p>The Public Domain Manifesto tries to defend our freedom within the
+walled garden of the public domain, but abandons that freedom outside
+it. This is not enough.</p>
+
+<p>I ask the authors of the Public Domain Manifesto, and the public,
+to please join me in demanding the freedom to noncommercially share
+copies of all published works. Also please
+join <a
href="http://defectivebydesign.org">DefectiveByDesign.org</a>
+and help our fight against DRM wherever it may be found.</p>

+<a href="/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Protection">“copyright
+protection”</a>. These terms were chosen to lead people to
+sympathize with the copyright industry and its demands for power.</p>
+
+<p>The manifesto and its signatories use the term “intellectual
+property”, which confuses the issue of copyright by lumping it
+together with a dozen other laws that have nothing significant in
+common.
+(See <a
href="/philosophy/not-ipr.html">http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/not-ipr.html</a>
+for more explanation about this point.) Ironically it uses the term
+first in a sentence which points out that this manifesto is concerned
+only with copyright law, not with those other laws. That is with good
+reason: the other laws are not relevant to copying and using published
+works. If we seek to teach the public to distinguish between these
+laws, we should avoid setting an example which spuriously lumps them
+together.</p>
+
+<p>General Principle 2 repeats the common error that copyright should
+balance the public interest with “protecting and rewarding the
+author”. This error interferes with proper judgment of any
+copyright policy question, since that should be based on the public
+interest.
+<a
href="/philosophy/misinterpreting-copyright.html">http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/misinterpreting-copyright.html</a>
+explains this error and how to avoid it.</p>
+
+<p>It would be difficult to stand aside from a campaign for the right
+goals merely because it was written with unclear words. However, the
+manifesto falls far short in its specific goals too. It is not that I
+oppose them. Any one of its demands, individually, would be a step
+forward, even though the wording of some of them discourages me from
+signing my name to them.</p>
+
+<p>Rather the problem is that it fails to ask for the most important
+points. I cannot say, “This manifesto is what I stand
+for.” I cannot say, “I support what's in this
+manifesto,” unless I can add, equally visibly, “But it
+fails to mention the most important points of all.”</p>
+
+<p>General Principle 5 opposes contracts that restrict use of copies
+of public domain works. But where we most need to oppose such
+contracts is where they apply to works that are still copyrighted
+(this is how Amazon tries to claim that you don't own the e-book that
+you bought). Likewise, General Principle 5
+condemns <acronym title="Digital Restrictions
Management">DRM</acronym>,
+but only when it applies to a public domain work. In effect, it
+legitimizes most real DRM by omitting it from criticism.</p>
+
+<p>I've saved the biggest omission for last. General Recommendation 9
+calls for allowing “personal copying” of copyrighted
+works. Since it omits the issue of the freedom to share copies of
+published works with others, it fails to address the nastiest aspect
+of copyright: the
+vicious <a
href="http://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/war-on-sharing-riaa-lawsuits">War
+on Sharing</a> that the entertainment companies are now waging.</p>
+
+<p>The demands and recommendations of the Public Domain Manifesto
+would be a step forward. It may do some good if it inspires people
+who have accepted the industry position to begin to doubt it.
+However, if we adopt this manifesto as our goal, it will distract us
+from what we really need to fight for.</p>
+
+<p>The Public Domain Manifesto tries to defend our freedom within the
+walled garden of the public domain, but abandons that freedom outside
+it. This is not enough.</p>
+
+<p>I ask the authors of the Public Domain Manifesto, and the public,
+to please join me in demanding the freedom to noncommercially share
+copies of all published works. Also please
+join <a
href="http://defectivebydesign.org">DefectiveByDesign.org</a>
+and help our fight against DRM wherever it may be found.</p>
