Theater activists in Gdańsk have founded the Indeks 73 - an organization that aims to prevent the use of copyright laws as a new form of censorship. Archibishop Życiński has publically condemned the ban on non-commercial uses of the poetry of the late Father Twadrowski.

I think that intellectuals have just discovered that the water is getting hot."

In the year 2000, Polish theaters stopped performing plays about Winnie The Pooh because all licenses and permissions were revoked by the copyright owner. Even the legendary Kubuś P, by Piotr Cieślak, ceased to be performed. All power over Winnie The Pooh has been consolidated in the hands of the Disney Marketing division. All attempts to present Winnie The Pooh in a different light than the version Disney treats people with have ceased to exist. It is not so much the shallow interpretation of Winnie The Pooh that Disney offers up that is the problem. After all, Mozart can be played in a manner that is better or worse. What is dangerous is when only one version of Mozart's music becomes legal, while all of the rest cease to have any right of expression.

This is not hard to imagine when
