Harry, would you still see it as a derived work if the letters of the original weren't changed to random letters, but to always the same letter(s)?
For instance,
"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife."
could be transformed to
"Jj jj jjjjj jjjjjjjjjj jjjjjjjjjjjj, jjjj j jjjjjj jjj jj jjjjjjjjjj jj j jjjj jjjjjjj jjjj jj jj jjjj jj j jjjj."
Or, looking much better:
"Be nn e tbenn etbennetbe nnetbennetbe, nnet b ennetb enn et bennetbenn et b enne tbennet benn et be nnet be n netn."
There's no way to reconstruct the original, is there? So how could it be copyrighted? The same goes for the original plug-in as well, of course, but perhaps it isn't that obvious...
Although, that would be basically the same as using Lorem ipsum, which has been mentioned before in this thread, I think...
