Darling_Jimmy: I just noticed this on my PayPal receipt. My PayPal receipt is the intellectual property of PayPal? I have a strange and sudden urge to torrent all my receipts now.

orcishgamer: 1) It's a fact
2) It's not creative

They can claim copyright all they want, they'd be laughed out of court (not that I'd want to pay to prove them wrong, but they would).
I'm guessing that it's the template, not the numbers in the email and is primarily as a means of protecting against fraudsters by giving another avenue for enforcement if need be.

It's a receipt. If they own the rights to left justified Times New Roman, I'll eat my hat. They can have their logo but even that doesn't qualify for copyright protection because it's a trademark.


EDIT: Worst case scenario, there's a mouth watering fedora with my name on it. :D

I wonder where one could buy a hat made out of liquorice. I wouldn't mind eating one of those (provided it was bought new and hygenic, and is reasonable fresh).
