While the newspaper-borrowing is now well-established, I think the
computer-borrowing one is a more recent change... by default,
copyright law tends to deny things.  It's not so long ago that
permission to backup software was added to English law.

I'm disappointed by the refusal to discuss physical computer-borrowing
when AGPL is about restricting network-based computer-borrowing.
