What Is Fair Use?

In its most general sense, a fair use is any copying of copyrighted material done for a limited and “transformative” purpose, such as to comment upon, criticize, or parody a copyrighted work. Such uses can be done without permission from the copyright owner. In other words, fair use is a defense against a claim of copyright infringement. If your use qualifies as a fair use, then it would not be considered an infringement.

fair use of copyright, you can not believe in this case even if it is called satire

Hi @jaguar.force

Yes, the law is clear if it is within this framework

If your use qualifies as a fair use, then it would not be considered an infringement.

And using the image as an avatar for that account is it allowed to do that?
I know you know a lot about this when it comes to copying other works or pictures

Yes it is allowed because its clearly a parody.
