       Mickey Mouse is now in the public domain. 🥳 So what does that mean for our shared culture? Free-range archivist Jason Scott takes readers on an enlightening tour of copyright, the creative ecosystem & film preservation in a thoughtful new post: https://blog.archive.org/2024/01/05/mickeys-bad-day-or-the-ecosystem/

       @internetarchive Mickey Mouse is not in the public domain. The Steamboat Willie cartoon strip is.

       Dear @artemesia seems like the @internetarchive is right. The Ub Iwerks artworks are in the PD already while you aren't wrong since the character redesigned by Fred Moore will take another decade to get there, too.
