Fair use applies when no other options available. In case of CC,
options are wide open. If somebody decides to override a CC licensed
file with a fair use, it is a clear Copy Vio.

I dug up the Indian fair use law and found this:

In this case, the aircraft had crashed and it was no longer possible to get
such a photograph, but can a newspaper otherwise just pick up any photo off
the internet and use it under fair use clause just to avoid paying
licensing fees of the photograph?

Gautam, thank you for correcting me, but I
believe Digitally Stealing
is also defined as Using Data Without Permission. Atleast that's the
definition Microsoft uses for their Windows Genuine campaign. Forgive
me if I'm wrong.
Since when did Microsoft become the arbiter of all that is sacred in
copyright law? :)
Thank you.
Best,
Gautam
