Copyright ethos & intentions

A lot of the con­tent of this site builds on the work of others. In some cases con­tent is news-like and is based enti­re­ly on the work of others, but is descri­bed here in our own con­text. In the­se cases we have cre­di­ted the ori­gi­nal sour­ce and pro­vi­ded a link to the sour­ce in the arti­cle. We would pre­fer not to have any of our con­tent copied, and instead have it lin­ked to, but if you do feel the need to publish con­tent that you have sour­ced from us plea­se pro­vi­de a rele­vant and approp­ri­a­te­ly pla­ced link back to the ori­gi­nal arti­cle. Our aim is to help the com­mu­ni­ty, but the web­hos­ting doe­sn’t pay for itself; con­se­quent­ly we are trying to stri­ke a balan­ce bet­ween sha­ring infor­ma­ti­on as broad­ly as pos­si­ble, whilst ensu­ring peo­p­le have access to the ori­gi­nal care­ful­ly-writ­ten con­tent on this site.

Hotlinks

We res­pect­ful­ly request that peo­p­le don’t hot­link to our down­lo­ads. In most cases the­re are rele­vant arti­cles which accom­pa­ny them which would be more approp­ri­a­te to link to, or alter­na­ti­ve­ly the­re is the down­lo­ads page. We belie­ve it is good neigh­bour­li­ness to pro­vi­de links to sites that have been help­ful. Thanks.

AI

At pre­sent the world of AI is not well regu­la­ted, Open, or accoun­ta­ble. Until such time as that sig­ni­fi­cantly chan­ges our con­tent may not be used for any AI sys­tems. Con­tent may not be scra­ped, sto­red, ana­ly­sed, used, or repro­du­ced by any AI systems.
