Copyrights serve an artist, inventor, or business/ corporation the exclusive rights to his or her material/ products. Commonly, copyrights are used in defense of others who may claim another person’s/ corporation’s product. Therefore I believe that it is integral to protect the products of an individual or corporation. According to Richard A. Epstein, in his book titled, “The Creators Own Ideas”, he suggests that since we have private rights in land for a community we therefore should have…

But, most often, they are emblazoned with customized logos of various companies. Many of them are well known national businesses but others are simply small, local businesses that are trying to get their name out into the general consciousness. If you own a business, you should consider creating customized hoodies for it. Take a…

Brief Two is to promote an artist in a band in a positive light that has not yet been signed to a record label. The artist has been managing their own promotion strategies mainly through social networking, compromising of websites such as Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and Instagram. The artist will need to belong to a definitive genre; I have chosen R&B. I have chosen this genre in contrast to other genres as R&B has similar characteristics of Hip-Hop yet introduces soul, depth and edge. My artist…

Myth 4: “TPP is a secret backdoor for a parade of horrible (and TPA lets that happen)!” This myth is simply not true. May politicians and other political anti TPP groups have perpetrated this rumor. One of the largest perpetrators of this myth are claims such as ‘’that TPA will permit President Obama to by pass congress and use the TPP as a backdoor to, among other things, lawlessly expand immigrations, curtail gun rights, or restrict internet freedom.” However ridiculous the claims the fact…

The notion of intellectual property rights being subjected to uniform laws is a compelling argument, but I don’t think it is a realistic one. It sounds like an ideal situation where no matter what country you are in, you know what to expect. Honestly, I think it might be impossible or at least would take years to successfully carry out. There are too many differences in the laws across the nation and some countries may have to change their current laws to comply with uniform laws causing more…
