Week 10: Copyright



The world of copyright can be a very confusing one indeed. There are so many different pieces that make up the broad term copyright. Some of these facets include the public domain, fair use, academic/educational permissions, website permissions, etc. Another side to copyright is what types of things can be copyrighted. Can all software by copyrighted? What about this blog that I'm creating right now? In my eyes, the topic of copyright is very convoluted and controversial; the laws that govern copyrights are even more so. One thing is for sure though, it will always be in your best interest to take the time to properly cite sources in an attempt to avoid violating a copyright. Better safe than sorry...
