        Most don’t know shit about copyright either, cause OOP has a case, assuming they used their own meme template.
        The entire meme economy is technically one big copyright violation, which just shows how utterly broken current copyright law is.

            And the judge has ruled in favour of the plaintiff and awards them the amount of 20,000 karmas in damages.

          Isn’t there an exception for transformative works, like adding captions?
