When Disney Claimed Gods: Loki's Copyright Override Fandom On The Phone
-
- Skönlitteratur
Disney's hottest new TV show "Loki" has made news. Not because it's bad (it’s actually pretty rad!), but because the company has claimed the Norse god of mischief as their property and has reported copyright claims against small businesses selling merch with his face on it; despite Loki being an *actual* god that *actual* people believe in. This is just one of the many cases of companies abusing copyright laws to increase their already-massive wealth and devastate their own fans.
Join Trisha and Neysa as they talk about Walt Disney's villain origin story, other ridiculous copyright claims, and how we can eat the rich in this episode of Fandom on the Phone!
(p.s. please don't sue us Disney)
