Thank you for the response Victoria!
I'll be honest... a lot of the "drama" of today has been a whole lot of nothing. Vague personal attacks and baseless accusations. No discussions of the actual claims in the article, but a lot of shit stirring.
I think a lot of people just don't understand how copyright works. Hussie is legally entitled to go full Anne Rice if they want, as is their legal right. Fanwork is a legal grey area and the fact that FRAF/HICU exists at all is not a common scenario!
