We understand that fair use is a legal determination based on various factors. We at LDC are not qualified to say what would constitute a fair use of LDC data. However, in this instance, the user has either breached an existing license agreement or hacked our catalog to obtain these data sets and is offering them on the platform to the same community served by LDC. |
