Let's say you wanted to create a excel spreadsheet of testing data (acceleration, skidpad, slalom, etc.) data from a foreign car magazine in a foreign language and then post it online (for free), are there any copyright laws on this?

Pretty sure that copyright laws do not cover data. Plus you should be fine under the fair use doctrine

Are you going to give credit to the source of the data?

I think as long as you cite the source and aren't profiting from it you're ok.

You'll need to log in to post.
