Topic #: 2
Sarah has created a site on which she publishes a copyrighted material. She is ignorant that she is infringing copyright. Is she guilty under copyright laws?
Suggested Answer:
B
Sarah is guilty under copyright laws because pleading ignorance of copyright infringement is not an excuse.
What is copyright?
A copyright is a form of intellectual property, which secures to its holder the exclusive right to produce copies of his or her works of original expression, such as a literary work, movie, musical work or sound recording, painting, photograph, computer program, or industrial design, for a defined, yet extendable, period of time. It does not cover ideas or facts. Copyright laws protect intellectual property from misuse by other individuals.
