Do people ever post anything here which really would involve copyright. Short stories, op-ed pieces etc?Not really. David Brin has done that in the past a few times, but that's pretty much it.
To take it to the other extreme - can we have a filter on the mailer daemon that holds all posts containing the word copyright for moderation?Technically, it should be possible to do so. However, the question is: are the list admins willing to spend the necessary time and effort on moderating such posts? Especially given the fact that all (or almost all) those posts will only have the word "copyright" in them because someone copied an article from somewhere else and included the copyright notice of that article.
