@@learncanvawithgreg as far as I can see one can just take other people work (whole books, just a few pages, or a flashy cover) and pass that off as their own. Is this the case ?

@@carolepstein7553 Hi Carol,
I'm not sure of the specifics driving your question, but copyright infringement has always been an issue, even more so in today's digital world I'm sure. As a creator you should have at least a basic understanding of copyright law and never pass others work off at your own, remembering that nothing is more valuable than your good reputation.
If someone steals your work than there are steps you can take to protect your intellectual property:
1. Document the Infringement
-Gather Evidence: Take screenshots, note URLs, and collect any relevant information showing your work being used without permission.
-Maintain Original Files: Keep your original files and any drafts to prove your ownership.
2. Contact the Infringer
-Send a Polite Request: Often, a polite email or message to the infringer asking them to remove your work or credit you properly can resolve the issue.
-Cease and Desist Letter: If the polite request doesn’t work, consider sending a cease and desist letter. You can draft this yourself or hire a lawyer to do it.
3. File a DMCA Takedown Notice
-Identify the Platform: If your work is posted on a platform like TH-cam, Instagram, or a website host, you can file a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) takedown notice.-
-Submit the Notice: Most platforms have a straightforward process for submitting DMCA takedown requests. Ensure you follow their specific guidelines.
4. Consult with a Lawyer
-Seek Legal Advice: If the infringement is severe or the infringer refuses to comply, consulting with an intellectual property lawyer can provide you with more options.
-Consider Legal Action: In some cases, taking legal action may be necessary. Your lawyer can guide you through this process.
5. Register Your Copyright
-Official Registration: While your work is protected by copyright as soon as you create it, registering it with the copyright office in your country provides additional legal benefits, such as the ability to claim statutory damages and -attorney’s fees in a lawsuit.
6. Use Watermarks and Copyright Notices
-Watermarks: Adding watermarks to your digital work can help deter theft and make it easier to prove ownership.
-Copyright Notices: Including a copyright notice on your work can serve as a reminder that it is protected.
7. Monitor and Protect Your Work
-Regular Searches: Regularly search the internet for your work to catch infringements early.
-Use Monitoring Tools: Tools like Google Alerts or Pixsy can help you monitor where your work appears online.
Hope this helps.
cheers,
Greg

did I miss the folders tutorial? I love my folders but looking for tips on how to master the organization and hierarchy of them. Thanks!

[@learncanvawithgreg]

Here's a link to a folders video I did a little while back, th-cam.com/video/gWrrU8gdb0w/w-d-xo.html. : ) cheers, Greg

that thumbnail is too cute ❤

[@learncanvawithgreg]

Well, I've probably dated myself with the nod to The Brady Bunch. To be fair, I think I saw it in syndication and that it was officially off the air before I was born. Although, barely. 😂 cheers, Greg
