This is part of a post by Jim the day before yesterday and it got me to thinking. Okay, I've always gotten confused with things that are copyrighted, and I'm a bit confused as to what we as posters could get in trouble for on a legal basis. For example if we post a link to an article that's okay if I'm understanding correctly. But if I paste and copy from a site, that's where I / we can get in trouble? I may be a little slow but what's the difference?
And if I subscribed to say Rivals.com and they revealed UNC was recruiting some 8 foot guy from Turkey. If I came on here and said I read on Rivals, or "heard from a reliable source" they were recruiting this guy, Can I or DBR get in trouble for that? I mean you pay to use that site ,do you sign a confidentiality agreement when you join or something? I don't see it any different than joining Brittneyspears.com and then coming on here and saying she's lost her mind.
And I know VERY well IF I came on here telling about the 8' UNC recruit, half the board would be wanting me to cite sources and stop "rumor mongering" or typing unsubstantiated data. For the record I don't subscribe to any on line recruiting sources, but I do get every issue of a particular recruiting rag sheet. So moderators or anyone else. Explain the lines and how not to cross them.
