Is it possible to create something where knowing about the thing constitutes copyright infringement?

I suppose you could argue an “illegal number” is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illegal_number.

For example, the HD DVD encryption key saga was originally fought via DMCA notices to Digg: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AACS_encryption_key_controversy

Works for me with Lemmy-UI. I’m guessing whatever client/browser you’re using is including the period at the end of the sentence in the URL.

But you have to know the number. It’s not copyright infringement if you just know there is a number.

So I suppose being able to memorise and then replicate it? That’s not bad. I was thinking along the lines of knowing about a joke where Taylor Swift lyrics were attributed to Mark Twain (for example) would violate Tay tay’s moral right of attribution, and that could happen by simply knowing the joke.
