I'm an independent creator/artist and I've been trying to wrap my head around the text, but have been struggling a bit.
My main concern is about the "Three-Step Test" of fair use. Could you elaborate on what effect the current language would have/what limitations would occur compared to the current state of affairs?
If examples of the concerns help, a friend of mine has been doing illustrations based on "Animal Farm", my understanding of the leaked information is that transformative work like that would be restricted. And I myself have been working on a re-imagining/"sequel" of Peter Pan, and my understanding is that I'd be restricted based on the expanded copyright terms (pulling it out of the public domain) and then the changes to fair use.
Are those understandings correct? Or is there a general idea of what will occur, if the TPP goes through, on creating/remixing?
