The Copyright FAQ is a series of six articles that contains frequently asked questions (FAQ) with answers relating to copyright law, particularly that of the United States. It is posted to the Usenet misc.legal, misc.legal.computing, misc.int-property, comp.patents, misc.answers, comp.answers, and news.answers newsgroups monthly, on or near the 17th of each month.

This FAQ is available for anonymous FTP from rtfm.mit.edu [18.70.0.209], in directory /pub/usenet/news.answers/law/Copyright-FAQ, files part1 - part6. (Note: this directory name is a change from previous releases, at the request of the rtfm.mit.edu administrators.) If you do not have direct access by FTP, you can obtain a copy via email: send a message to mailserver @rtfm.mit.edu with the following lines in it:
