"A Feud in Wolf-Kink Erotica Raises a Deep Legal Question"

There are a range of things worthy of discussion in the news beyond the usual suspects and the subject article flags this. The idea that the Internet is generally used for porn has been well cited. But, it is not just visual. There was and continues to be a great outpouring of erotic/pornographic writing, including chat rooms.

The copyright conflict here arises is some part of this -- the similarities of two erotic writings seem at least partially because they were inspired and got material from online erotica. I'm curious what sort of "research" was done by Kitty Bennett and Susan Beachy, the first at least sounds like a pen name. I sorta kid though the legal work here sounds somewhat interesting. The efforts, some quite skillful if done for subjects that some find distasteful, of Omegaverse & others also is noteworthy. Plus, the overall dispute can arise outside of this one area.
