Copyright and fair use are used for the same purpose.

Answer 1

Copyright and fair use are related in that fair use is a limitation to the exclusive rights granted by copyright law. Fair use allows for the use of copyrighted material without permission for purposes such as criticism, commentary, education, research, and news reporting. Fair use is a defense to copyright infringement, meaning that using copyrighted material under fair use does not require permission from the copyright holder. However, the use must be considered fair, which involves considering factors such as the purpose of the use, the nature of the copyrighted work, the amount used, and the effect on the market for the original work. In summary, copyright grants exclusive rights to creators, while fair use allows for certain limited uses of copyrighted material without permission.
