Copyright Internet Laws – Your Ultimate Guide
No matter how free we are, there will always be laws with regards to ownership and copyrighting, even on the World Wide Web that we can’t avoid. We cannot deny that with the internet, people from all over the world have the ability and the skills to post, distribute, or redistribute works to others all over without the slightest bit of sweat, which is why these laws are created and enacted to prevent such infringement from happening. But despite the creation of these copyright laws internet, there are still those that are able to outwit and evade the consequences of stealing other people’s work on the internet. If this is what’s happening to you, this article is going to give you simple tips and a general idea of what you can do to protect your rights even while online.
First things first, anything that is posted on the World Wide Web is still considered as “published work”. This could be anything from actual e-books, essays, articles, and written works to visuals like photos, videos, games, and the like. One these works have been published online, the author, artist, photographer, etc have the right to claim ownership and copyright their works to protect them from unauthorized usage from other internet users. They have the right to take action whenever their works have been infringed and redistributed without proper permission. Once this internet law has been violated, then here’s what you can do:
• As of today, the best and most effective way to enforce copyright laws internet is through the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998. This act was created and enacted for two main reasons:
o To protect the rights of internet users in terms of copyrighted works and ownership over the World Wide Web.
o To provide immunization to internet service providers for liabilities that could be used against them due to violations and copyright infringements, which have occurred in their systems and networks.
• After locating the website where your work was re-posted or redistributed again without your permission, you can take down the name of the culprit, the URL of the website, and all other important information that could help track where the violation was done.
• You can then file a complaint or a DMCA letter to the internet user’s ISP or internet service provider as well as major search engines such as Yahoo and Google. Usually they have the authority to impose consequences in order to be able to warn or eventually prohibit the violator’s use of the ISP’s network.
This is just one of the many ways to enforce your copyright laws and practice your rights to ownership both offline and online. If you think that more information is required to solve the problem, you can search through Google or Yahoo for websites that can provide more information, step-by-step instructions, and the like with regards to copyright infringement and what you can do to prevent it from happening to you. If you have been violated already, then you must take action to be able to enforce your rights as author, artist, photographer, and the like against violators all over the world.

Sex Offender Laws by Wright, Richard Gordon Edition , 1 $21.49 This volume of readings provides an excellent source of information about sex offender laws and policies.–International Journal of Offender Therapy and Comparative CriminologySex Offender Laws…is a good source for balanced, objective, and thorough critique of our current sex offender policies as well as a source for accurate information about a very heterogeneous population…The message that sexual abuse is often a multifaceted and complex issue and that policy based on quick fixes or knee jerk reactions do not often work will be informative and enlightening to many readers.–Sex Roles[T]his fine book by Richard Wright and his distinguished collaborators provides the evidence that wise policy-makers would want to consider. It covers every major field of research concerning sex offenders and sexual offenses and provides evidence of bad practices and policies .Intellectually honest politicians should read this book. –Michael Tonry, LL.B, Professor of Law and Public PolicyUniversity of Minnesota Law School (From the Foreword)In response to many high-profile cases of sexual assault, federal and state governments have placed a number of unique criminal sanctions on sex offenders. These include residency restrictions, exclusionary zones, electronic monitoring, and chemical castration. However, the majority of sex offender policies are not based on empirical evidence, nor have they demonstrated any significant reductions in offender recidivism. In fact, some of these policies have unintended consequences, which actually increase the likelihood of sexual offenses.In this book, Wright critically analyzes existing policies, and assesses the most effective approaches in preventing sex offender recidivism. This provocative and timely book draws from the fields of criminal justice, law, forensic psychology, and social work to examine how current laws and policies are enacted and what to-date is known about their efficacy. In response to the failed policies of sex offender laws, this book presents alternative models and approaches to sex offense laws and policies. Wright also explores critical, cutting-edge topics, such as internet sexual solicitation, the death penalty, and community responses to sex offense. Key Features:An introduction and overview of the history of sex offender lawsAnalyzes the role of the media in sex offense and sex offender policiesExamines the political untouchability of sex offender laws and their adverse effects Features interviews with victims of sexual assault, investigating their points of views on what kinds of reforms need to be made to sex offender lawsThought-provoking and insightful, Sex Offender Laws serves as a vital resource for policy makers, researchers, and students of criminal justice, law, and social work. |

13 Things That Don’t Make Sense: The Most Baffling Scientific Mysteries of Our Time $19.95 Ninety-six per cent of the universe is missing. The effects of homeopathy don’t go away under rigorous scientific conditions. The laws of nature aren’t what they used to be. Thirty years on, no one has an explanation for a seemingly intelligent signal received from outer space. The US Department of Energy is re-examining cold fusion because the experimental evidence seems too solid to ignore. The placebo effect is put to work in medicine while doctors can’t agree whether it even exists.In an age when science is supposed to be king, scientists are beset by experimental results they simply can’t explain. But, if the past is anything to go by, these anomalies contain the seeds of future revolutions. While taking readers on an entertaining tour d’horizon of the strangest of scientific findings – involving everything from our lack of free will to Martian methane that offers new evidence of life on the planet – Michael Brooks argues that the things we don’t understand are the key to what we are about to discover.This mind-boggling but entirely accessible survey of the outer limits of human knowledge is based on a short article by Michael Brooks for New Scientist magazine. It became the sixth most circulated story on the internet in 2005, and provoked widespread comment and compliments (Google “13 things that do not make sense” to see).Michael Brooks has now dug deeply into those mysteries, with extraordinary results. |

A Nation Transformed by Information: How Information Has Shaped the United States from Colonial Times to the Present $6.4 This book makes the startling case that North Americans were getting on the "information highway" as early as the 1700′s, and have been using it as a critical building block of their social, economic, and political world ever since. By the time of the founding of the United States, there was a postal system and roads for the distribution of mail, copyright laws to protect intellectual property, and newspapers, books, and broadsides to bring information to a populace that was building a nation on the basis of an informed electorate. In the 19th century, Americans developed the telegraph, telephone, and motion pictures, inventions that further expanded the reach of information. In the 20th century they added television, computers, and the Internet, ultimately connecting themselves to a whole world of information. From the beginning North Americans were willing to invest in the infrastructure to make such connectivity possible. This book explores what the deployment of these technologies says about American society. The editors assembled a group of contributors who are experts in their particular fields and worked with them to create a book that is fully integrated and cross-referenced. |

A Thin Dark Line $7.99 The Barnes & Noble Review April 1997 Charles Platt has “very little interest in history.” The writer of over forty books and his own computer software, Platt remarks that he is “much more interested in the future, and [has] spent a lot of time writing and thinking about that.” He has contributed more than a dozen articles to Wired magazine, and his novel The Silicon Man was chosen as one of the top three science fiction novels of the year by The New York Times. Charles Platt is looking to the future, and as everyday life moves into its new digs online, very real legal and social issues concerning cyberspace crime and virtual sex need to be examinied. Anarchy Online is really two books bound together in one volume. In the first half of Anarchy Online, Charles Platt frankly lays out evidence of crime on the Internet. From famous hackers like Kevin Mitnick, to anonymous users who crack into satellite cable channel codes, to local online sheriffs busting illegal bulletin board operators, the book documents individual cases in a chronological and nonpartisan fashion. Platt details the modus operandi of everyone from urban phone “phreaks” to the savviest online pirates. Just as quickly, he interviews the lawmakers — including the deputy director of the FBI in charge of formulating government legal policy concerning the Internet — in hopes of answering the question of whether or not new laws will protect the everyday user or corporation from intrusion, vandalism and viruses. There are issues of free speech at stake here. Part two of AnarchyOnlineconcentrates on the social implications of netspeech. Should pornographic, violent, innaccurate, or hate-filled content in chat rooms and on websites be regulated? How much of it can be legally deemed “obscene,” and is there a way to direct the discussion in cyberspace short of setting up |
