Were You Wearing Protection? [Viacom vs. YouTube/Google]

1938superman asked:

Copyright protection, that is. ASK ME QUESTIONS! BE CREATIVE! www.youtube.com Sign petition challenging judges decision: www.petitiononline.com YouTube side: www.youtube.com Viacom side: www.viacom.com WIPO List of Copyright/Intellectual Property Offices: www.wipo.int Here you can find the correct office for your country and direct copyright questions at their contact section. The US Copyright office actually got back to me very quickly on a question. Within a couple hours and they were very nice. Just don’t ask them the copyright status of any particular work unless you’re ready to pay a research charge. Also don’t ask them for opinions or advice. That’s the job of copyright lawyers. But you can lay out a question for them, even give a scenario as an example, and ask them how the law applies to the situation and whether or not a certain course of action is within your legal rights.

Obtaining Copyright Protection Video: Heather’s Songs Protected and Copyrighted | LegalZoom

LegalZoom asked:

My story starts with the need for copyright protection and the discovery of LegalZoom and CopyrightProtection.com. My name is Andrea, my daughter Heather has written over 30 songs and has preformed her music at high school functions, church and other social events. She even won 1st place in a talent competition. I started to become concerned when she posted some of the songs she wrote on YouTube. I didn’t know how to protect her material. I searched how to copyright on the internet,. I remembered seeing some commercials on TV about wills, copyright, new business, legal advice etc. and the success of those people, so I knew there was a name I could trust for copyright protection. LegalZoom answered a lot of  my questions, it was quick and simple. Now Heather can post or sing her songs anywhere and I know her material will be safe .

Commander Keen – Copyright Protection

nerdymark asked:

The early 90s were a fun time for software and games, and they often employed creative ways to prevent piracy. Apogee’s Commander Keen 6 came with a manual containing creature names, and after you run the program, you are prompted to look up the creature name. DRM from 1991 :) Who still has their manual? I presume you can obtain one at one of the abandonware sites…
