Copyright misuse is an equitable defense against copyright infringement in the United States, based on the abusive or improper conduct of the copyright owner in enforcing the copyright. It is comparable to, and draws from precedents under, the older doctrine of patent misuse, which dates back to the early years of the 20th century.
