Indeed. Care to go down the list at [[Fair use]] and check the others for applicability?
First I'd argue the use is de minimis, but that might fail...
purpose and character - highly transformative nature of the copyrighted work - non-fictional work that anyone can download for free over the internet amount and substantiality - not much effect on the work's value - zero
4/4, I declare fair use the winner
But this list of conditions is irrelevant, as it is preceded in the copyright act by: "for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research".
Which one of these purposes applies to this case?
