Lessig: “our kids have been turned into criminals”


Larry Lessig made an appearance on The Colbert Report this past Thursday night. The Electronic Frontier Foundation has a brief transcript as well as a video embed of the interview. It’s actually quite good. Here’s a snippet:

Colbert: Nobody should take my work and do anything with it that is not approved! Ever ever never ever take anything of mine and remix it! For instance, I will be very angry and possibly litigious if anyone out there takes this interview right here and remixes it with some great dance beat. And it starts showing up in clubs across America.

Lessig: Actually, we’re joint copyright owners. I’m ok with that. You can totally remix this. I’m fine with that.

Boom!
