If you did a dramatic reading of a few excerpts, that might be a viable argument. If you read the whole book, that would most definitely not be fair use. That said, given his absolute financial inadequacy, his problematic litigation track record, the fact that it wouldn't be a local small claims filing and so would be expensive and complicated, and the fact that you'd be anonymous and it would take a great deal of effort to identify you, I'd say the actual legal risk is close to zero. That said, it is definitely something better uploaded here as an MP3 than uploaded to Youtube, which has a habit of aggressively responding to takedown notices.
How about each of us read a few paras or chapters. If multiple read portions, each individual would thus be abiding by fair use doctrine! He could sue KF globally maybe, but good luck with that!
This sad fuck tho... Its been an amazing read to get caught up. Can't wait til he gets taken down in some fashion. He's definitely asking for it.
