You are free to repeat what you've heard, are you not?

So where do you draw the line and say "no, this is intellectual property, you are not allowed to take it with you"

(For my own part I've been coming around to thinking of it as a consent framework and not a property framework. I might refrain from distributing photos I have a copy of because someone in the photo asked me not to. Or delete a video I took at a kareoke bar because the singer is embarrased - not because they own the content and can sue me for distributing it, but because I want to be respectful of someone else's wishes.)
