Regarding the status of constructed languages, Paramount sued the creators of Axanar, a Star Trek fan production, for copyright infringement and claimed the use of the Klingon language was one of the things infringed. Marc Randazza argued on behalf of the Axanar people that the large amount of additional Klingon vocabulary invented and incorporated by its users since it was originally created makes it a living language. Paramount and Axanar settled, but I wonder how that argument would go over if it had gotten to a ruling -- and where courts would draw the line about the amount of innovation needed before a conlang creator no longer owns their language. https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2016/apr/29/star-trek-fan-film-klingon-paramount-cbs-lawsuit

Thomas - Please accept this apology on behalf of myself and all the other young, or otherwise down-on-their-luck folks who accepted a job in a call center working for a place named something like "Labor Law Poster Compliance." I lasted 2 weeks and sold 0 posters. How they get away with it: The official script has you acknowledge that the posters themselves are free, that you aren't calling from any regulatory or government agency, etc. The people who last in the jobs are the ones who are able to make commission, and to actually sell those things required quite a few lies and/or omissions.
