Perhaps the most surprising link we encounter in our work is between copyright law and the economics of intimacy. We navigate a landscape where creative expression, privacy, and commerce intersect in ways lawmakers and platforms rarely anticipated. This intersection forces trade-offs between protecting rights and preserving personal autonomy. As publishers …
