"Matt Wardman of the Wardman Wire asks an interesting question on the
mySociety:public mailing list. He had created a couple of mug designs
poking fun at the former MP Phillip Woolas and submitted them to the
online platform Spreadshirt. According to his blog post they refused to
accept the design..."
An interesting analysis of copyright, personality rights, data
protection legislation, freedom of speech, and the different laws of
England&Wales and Germany. Very relevant to internet age art and politics.
