Fair use only covers critique, parody and education, and only with a whole bunch of extra nuance (e.g. you can’t just put a clip of yourself saying you didn’t like a movie at the end of the movie and get away with hosting it on your site by claiming it was critique, and you can’t download a PDF of a textbook and get away with it by claiming it was for education). Fair use lets you do a lot less than people think.

I hate Twitter but I despise articles that just post 3 tweets and provides a barebones AI recap of the conversation.

Fair use is a defense you have to make in court. And court is expensive.
