  1. You're not allowed to reproduce entire works by a famous author on your website without the rights holders' permission. I think copyrighted works & what gets done with them... including printing or not-printing is in the hands of the copyright holder. theclearancelab.com/dr-seuss-in-court-a-tale-of-copyright-infringement/

      Seems like the sort of thing a bunch of constitutional originalists, free speech advocates and people who keep voting to extend copyrights should know. Pretty sure it is the sort of thing a major newspaper's editors would have caught. If only she still worked at one.

        Pretty sure it is EXTRA bad copyright infringement if you reproduce the work AND strip original author's name off the work AND apply your own copyright. Not great GoDaddy. Sure seems likely to get a takedown request for a high profile copyright violation w/their name on it.

          And it only *compounds* the problem if you reproduce the work as a way to make money by adding a call to action that goes direct to a fundraising site. Seems like a good way for the company that set it up to get sued.
