Hello frens,

As a great opponent of any form of IP, I have been following the event of Disney's Steamboat Willie entering the public domain with great amusement. The incidents where creators have been falsely demonetized on youtube for rightfully using this film is further underpinned by Disney's decades-long shameless practices. The linked article sums it up quite well I think.

That's a question that I don't know is answerable, because it comes down to the judgement of the courts; and I certainly wouldn't want to be on the business end of the Disney legal division in that fight.
