Study Notes
Legal, Ethical, and Societal Issues in Media and Information
- Media and information literacy encompasses legal, ethical, and societal issues related to media and information.
Piracy
- Piracy is the unauthorized reproduction or use of copyrighted material, including books, recordings, and television programs, as well as patented inventions and trademarked products.
Digital Piracy
- Digital piracy is the illegal duplication, copying, or sharing of digital works without the permission of the copyright holder. This is a violation of copyright laws.
Intellectual Property
- Intellectual property (IP) is the creation of the mind, encompassing inventions, literary and artistic works, designs, and symbols, names, and images used in commerce.
- IP is protected by patents, copyrights, and trademarks, allowing creators to gain recognition or financial benefits.
- Protection of IP rights incentivizes creativity, promotes respect for artists' livelihoods, prevents infringement/free riding, and fosters economic growth.
Copyright
- Copyright is a set of rights granted to the creator of a work to restrict others from copying, redistributing, or resharing that content.
- Copyright validity varies depending on the type of work (e.g., lifetime + 50 years after death for literary or artistic works; 25 years from creation for photographic works).
Inventions
- Inventions are new creations (devices, methods, or processes) developed from study and experimentation that have not been made before.
Patents
- A patent is a legal document granting an inventor exclusive rights to make, use, and sell their invention for a specific number of years.
- Key requirements for patent eligibility include novelty (new invention), solution to a problem, applicability to an industry, and inventive step (non-obvious solution).
Trademarks
- A trademark is a symbol used by manufacturers/merchants to distinguish their products.
Industrial Design
- Industrial design is the aesthetic or ornamental aspect of an item, encompassing three-dimensional (shape, surface) or two-dimensional (patterns, lines, color) features.
Geographical Indication
- Geographical indications are signs used to represent a good's origin and characteristics.
Trade Secrets
- Trade secrets are proprietary information (formulas, procedures, strategies, systems or devices) that give an enterprise a competitive advantage. They are confidential and exclusive to the enterprise.
Fair Use
- Fair use allows for the use of copyrighted material without a license for specific purposes (e.g., commentary, criticism, reporting, research, teaching).
- Key guidelines for fair use include creating original content, crediting the original creator, and avoiding making a profit from the copyrighted material.
Creative Commons
- Creative Commons is an organization that provides copyright licenses, allowing creators to share their works while retaining some rights.
- These licenses permit various uses of the content.
