NATO - the North Atlantic Treaty Organization - is an alliance of 30 European and North American countries, including the United States. Its foundational document is the North Atlantic Treaty, which sets forth NATO's purpose and obligations: ensuring peace and security through collective #defense. NATO was formed shortly after the end of World War II, at the dawn of the #ColdWar. The organization's collective defense obligations, detailed in Article 5, have been invoked only once, on behalf of the United States after 9/11. #Russia's recent invasion of Ukraine has sparked concerns that Russian President Vladimir #Putin may expand the scope of the conflict to NATO members like Poland and Lithuania, triggering NATO's collective defense obligations. Many in the public are now asking what NATO's collective defense obligations mean for the United States.

Fair use is the right to use a copyrighted work under certain conditions without permission of the copyright owner. The doctrine helps prevent a rigid application of copyright law that would stifle the very creativity the law is designed to foster. It allows one to use and build upon prior works in a manner that does not unfairly deprive prior copyright owners of the right to control and benefit from their works. Together with other features of copyright law like the idea/expression dichotomy discussed above, fair use reconciles the copyright statute with the First Amendment.
