Abstract

Digital writing is not a new matter, which is accompanied by the
emergence of electronic digital computers. The evolution of computer and
network technology has broadened the term of copyright in the digital

writing, when digital writing has no longer been summarized by several
terminologies in current Copyright Act & Related Laws, e.g. computer
program writing, temporary storage, etc. Possibly because of its professional
status, the term "digital writing" has never appeared in the Copyright Act &

Related Laws, but there are judicial precedents acquiescing their existence.
Due to the existing judicial precedents, digital writing in this paper is defined
as a written communication that was created through the use of information
technologies. Where there is a work, there is the problem of fair use. This

paper aimed to explore the fair use of digital writing from the perspectives
of both a creator and a user. The paper focuses on how users can face the
laws and regulations in Copyright Act when using digital writing within the
doctrine of fair use.

I During the process of teaching and research, educators will confront
the issue of the fair use of digital writing. The legal fair use doctrine is a
principle rather than a standard. Accurately governing fair use is not always
easy and thus, it is recommended that users should not make decisions

without authorization. Instead, they are suggested to clarify whether the
potential material is fair use.
