Week 10 Legal Ethical Considerations
- 1. Copyright, Intellectual Property and other Legal and Ethical matters Writing & Editing for Digital Media, Week 10
Notes de l'éditeur
- Berne Convention; automatic on completion of artwork; recognised copyright between sovereign nations; based on life of the author + 50 years; did not require copyright notice but standard “© Name Year” did invoke the convention UCC: developed as an alternative to Berne Convention by US, Soviet Union and developing nations; requires copyright notice In the 18th century, copyright in the US only lasted 14 years. Sonny Bono extension makes it 70 years after death of creator and 95 years after publication for works owned by corporations.
- Examples of how creativity is shackled: if fairytales hadn’t been in the public domain, Disney would never have been able to make the Snow White movie or the Cinderella movie or any of the rest of the,. With Disney’s eternally extended copyrights, no one can ever do the same creative remake with Mickey Mouse.
- The way that the Kevin Smith films mobilise discussion of Star Wars and even the stars of Star Wars when the real Mark Hamill appears in one film.
- If we argue that the author’s intention is irrelevant anyway, as we began to back in week one, then it is possible that the postmodern attitude towards authorship necessitates and assumes a participatory model of cultural consumption.
- Famous examples of over-reach: Adobe Systems released in 2000 a public domain work, Lewis Carroll 's Alice in Wonderland , with DRM controls asserting that "this book cannot be read aloud" and so disabling use of the text-to-speech feature normally available in Adobe eBook Reader (source: Wikipedia) DRM can be used for purely capitalist purposes such as DVD region management which actually has nothing to do with rights of the creator. Content Scrambling System encoded DVD content so people couldn’t copy it. That was hacked in 1999 and DVDs can now be read and copied although it is still technically a breach of copyright and a punishable offence in Australia. Examples of DRM include encoding, physical protection, certificate-based protection and digital watermarks. DRM has primarily been used in eBooks, music, games and software.
