"Copyright is given de facto, but" ...

If you're going to imply someone isn't reading what they wrote, the least you can do is read what they wrote.

True. I apologize for coming off like a jerk. I should have provided more context, i was trying to highlight that contrary to what the OP wrote that is was irrelevant "they never show that the text was copyrighted."

I didn't disagree with the, "they never show that the text was copyrighted." But I did think it reasonable to point out that there is--in fact--a place to register your works for a registered copyright. You don't have to, but it does give you nice benefits.

I think it might just be bad wording. One of the requirements of notification for copyright infringement is to identify the specific instances of infringement.

Actually, it's not de facto, it's the opposite: de jure.

Agreed, poor choice of words on my part. I was using it colloquially as concerning legal matters, which was inaccurate.

It was more a reply to mokus, who chided you for being wrong even though you were technically (albeit unknowingly) correct. ;)
