People who invoke USA Copyright are expected to know the conditions of that copyright and I call "Bull Shit" on draconian sounding CR notices. See notice below.

I am AMAZED at the number of alleged anarchists, anarcho-capitalist and free market advocates who STILL INVOKE the tax funded USA government copyright monopoly instead of using Creative Commons like Mises.org and LewRockwell.com and yours truly.

Do these writers DISTRUST their own readers SO MUCH that they need a tyrannical government to "protect" their writings--even as they rant and rave against government? Where will their copyright "protection" be if they actually manage to abolish government? What is the nature of the example they are setting by invoking Government Copyright instead of private alternatives such as Creative Commons?
