do you not understand what a subject to clause is

Subject to sections 107 through 122, the owner of copyright under this title has the exclusive rights to do and to authorize any of the following:

or a notwithstanding clause means

Quote:
Notwithstanding the provisions of sections 106 and 106A, the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright.
the first makes all your exclusive right subject to you respect fair use (section 107)

and the latter EXPLICTLY defines fair use as not an infringement

both statements exclude the copyright act exclusive rights from the scope of fair use

Quote:
Copyright has nothing to do with normal property rights and is so impossible to violate a human right, it's not even funny. I create it, I don't even have to release it, and it makes it impossible to take away from someone else, thus impossible to be a violation of human rights.
your selling me property (cd/dvd/video/etc) and replacing the normal rights i would have for property with licienced rights (use rights).

fair use of copyright content is the only property right based usage of content allowed under the law
