THE FINAL ENTRY

Lecture:

Today in the lecture we learn't about social and ethical issues with the web. The issues with the security of the web is that anyone can be watching you through cyber space. Anyone can put information on the web, you can get smart educated people putting valued information on the net and you can get dumb no brained people that have no idea what there talking about putting up information on sites. when sending your information from your computer to another computer it goes through several other computers which they can gather your private details.

Tuturial:

Activity 1:

The first copyright page i opened was on assigning and licencing rights. the page is about the owners of pasific licence giving the right to another person to apply for the licence to print and copy books for exclusive licence. For Non-exclusive licence are for someone to allow another person to work and for that person to let another non-licence person to work also.

The second page was on Governments ( Commonwealth, State and Territory). Reading this I found out the Government gets licence were others wouldn't,
Governments are entitled to rely on very wide-ranging exceptions to copyright infringement, compared to other copyright users,
Local governments are not entitled to rely on the special provisions for governments, and
It can be difficult to work out whether a statutory body or government corporation is entitled to rely on the speacil provisons for governments.

The third page was on logos. I found that Logos are generally protected by copyright.
• Unless there is an agreement to the contrary, copyright in a logo is generally owned by its creator.
• Unauthorised use of a logo may not only infringe copyright but may also raise issues under other areas of law
such as trade mark rights, passing off laws and consumer protection laws.

The forth page was on music.

Copyright protection is free and applies automatically when material is created.
• A song normally comprises of both a musical work and a literary work, each of which may have different
copyright owners.
• Sound recordings are also protected by copyright. This copyright is separate and additional to any copyrights
in the music and lyrics.
• Creators of musical or literary works also have moral rights in relation to their work.

The fifth was on videos and Dvd's (copying and downloading)

It is now legal for a person to copy a videotape he or she owns onto a DVD for private and domestic use.
• The new provision does not apply an infringing videotape.
• If you download a movie from the Internet for free, it may be a pirate copy, which means you infringe copyright by downloading it.

Activity 2:

The APRA website talks about what you need to know about music and the web.

Downloading music from the web on site for free may be a good convenice for you but its putting the artist that wrote that song out of pocket.

There are two rights due to the copyright of music;
1. The action to reproduce musical work, and

2. To be the portal of communication between an artists and the public.

Activity 3:

To protect yourself from internet attacks you never give out your personal details to anyone because that can lead to identity theift. Don't reply to mail that ask you to confirm your bank details, this is called spam mail.
