Title
Someone loses ownership on something they ownership on something they own. People all over take other’s work without blinking an eye. Is this the kind of society one should be living in?

According to the Declaration of Human Rights, human right number twenty-seven clearly states that, “Everyone has the right to the protection of the moral and material interests resulting from any scientific, literary, or artistic production of which he is the author.” However, according to the article, “Happy Birthday’ Copyright Invalidated by Judge,”

    Attached is a memorandum assigned in conjunction with my first-year Legal Research and Writing course. This assignment required me to conduct original research and draft an office memorandum addressing whether Veep Omboni Records inclusion of three music samples into a new single would constitute copyright infringement under the Copyright Act of 1976. Specifically, I analyzed whether the inclusion of any of the samples constitute copyright infringement of sound recordings when only small fragments of the copyrighted song were going to be used and would be digitally altered. A main issue in the memorandum was the existence of circuit split as to whether or not courts should recognize a de minimis exception to copyright infringement of sound…

    Blown to Bits Chapter 6: Balance Toppled Summary: Chapter 6 of Blown to Bits is a very interesting chapter. Chapter six dives into the often undefined world of copyright rights in computing. Copyright laws allow people to have full rights over their creative works and ideas, but this concept does not translate very well into the world of technology. Because information can be transferred with unparalleled ease in the computing age, intentional and unintentional copyright violations have become common.…

    I think that these facts support this claim because LJESB has a license to use the song. As the textbook indicates, “license is an agreement by the owner of intellectual property to permit another to use a trademark, copyright, patent, or trade secret for certain limited purposes.” The defendants are legal to use the song. Wilchcombe wrote the song at the request of LJESB. He gave permission to LJESB to release the song.…

    Copyright has been a controversial topic since the day it was created. It’s intentionally written for protecting intelligent properties, yet turns out causing a lot of pernicious side effects. In the editorial “In Defense of Piracy” of Lawrence Lessig, he criticized that the “copyrights wars” chokes creativity and criminalizes people who share stuff online. He provided an example which was about a mother posted her 13-month-old son dancing video with Prince’s music playing on the background on YouTube.…

    Copyright laws initially protect the original works, but not the facts or ideas. ‘The Copyright Act of 1976’ grants the exclusive rights to the copyright holder. Copyright holders are entailed to the exclusive rights such as the permission to alter derivative works, reproduction, distribution, display, performance, audio and video transmission. Law lag, is caused by the dynamic and unpredictable nature of technological innovation. The copyright law requires significant open-ended standards rather than specified rules.…

    Copyright laws have grown to become a very prominent issue in this country. As the number of developers, artists, and other cretaors increases, the more subjects we have available to compare to other objects, the higher chances there are that two of said objects will be considered similar enough that one of the, or even perhaps both parties involved will feel cheated by the other, giving context on the increasing amount of copyright laws and trials. The cases of Sony 's Betamax and Grokster 's StreamCast are two examples of this phenomenon that display the two ways in which this trial can end, and serves to help identify what exactly copyright is, who is guily of it, and who is innocent. Starting off, we have the Sony vs Universal case, otherwise…

    The Fair Use Doctrine defines ways of how the public can use small portions of copyright material without the fear of consequences. Fair Use is a set of guidelines that informs people how to prevent copyright infringement and can defend a person at a copyright infringement trial. The five tests for analyzing Fair Use are Transformative Factor, nature of the copyright work, the amount and substantiality of the portion used, the effect of the use upon the potential market, and the moral judgement of presiding judge or jury. With the five tests for analyzing Fair Use, I determine the classmate’s argument to plagiarism being protected under the Fair Use exceptions is invalid.…

Currently, there have been many problems with content creators on YouTube being attacked with copyright claims when they had not done anything wrong. I am going to argue that fair use laws should be adjusted so that companies cannot take advantage of people the way they do now.

    The idea/expression dichotomy theory is used to recognise copyright subsistence in the work in some cases. For example, in the United-Kingdom, the requirement of fixation involves that idea that is not reduced into writing or into some tangible form is not copyrightable. But this theory is also used to determine if a substantial infringement occurred, because a court must consider whether it is an idea of an expression of the idea that was taken in the infringing work. For Bently and Sherman, such a theory is necessary to ‘reconcile the divergent interests of copyright owners with those of users and the public more generally’. Indeed, the goal of copyright is to protect creative and original expressions.…

    The world is rich on productive individuals that on a daily basis focus on producing their own material to express their ideas, knowledge and/or creations throughout physical expressions.
