Copyright Explained: I May Copy It, Right?
With blogging comes great responsibilty. You define the content of your weblog and you carry the full responsibility for every word you've published online. More than that, you are responsible for comments in your posts. To make sure you fulfill your legal obligations, it's important to know, what you, as blogger, may or should do; and you have to know, how to achieve this. After all, the ignorance of the law does not make one exempt from compliance thereof. From the legal point of view, Copyright in Web is often considered as the grey area; as such it's often misunderstood and violated - mostly simply because bloggers don't know, what laws they have to abide and what issues they have to consider. In fact, copyright myths are common, as well as numerous copyright debates in the Web.By Smashing Editorial, July 7th, 2007 in How-To | 131 Comments
