COPYRIGHT AS MYTH

BY: JESSICA LITMAN


Copyright was always an interested topic for me. I always wondered why such focus was on it. Well Littman brought up some interested topics in her essay. Copyright was always present, but some people choose to ignore it. I mean why should someone care who the actual work belongs to.

Copyright infringement is always present in our everyday life. Whether it is listening to music, communicating with people, reading books, just everyday activities. Copyright has become such a heated topic. Everything you do, you always have to watch out about what an individual might do. I always to think copyright only applied when it something was huge or important. But now people are suing each other over copyright infringement.

I thought the essay was interesting how Litman went in detail about what exactly copyright is, and define it an asking lawyers.
