    Sure parody is a defence to copyright infringement. At the end of the day, it’s not my job to say it’s protected by parody. That’s your job as the Defendant. I only have to prove that you infringed onto my copyrights.

    Even if it is clear parody, I can quietly withdraw or settle my claim against you to prevent others from even thinking about it. It’s why SLAPP (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation) legislation has to exist.

      All true, hence I say in theory.
