#CopyrightInfringement

[amliv1]

Happy October. I must post this here for you all to see & make everyone aware of companies like #Temu.

I’ve been off social media for a while dealing with a personal matter and I come back to remind you guys that lazy grifters always want to make a quick buck with zero effort.

The cheap one is done on soft enamel and it looks like they cut so many corners to make it as garbage as possible and by no means does it represent the quality of work standard and values that I stand for.

As an artist and pin creator/collector, I urge you to care about where your products come from and how they impact the creators; don’t support lazy grifters and copy cats.

Please share this so other people, specially and consumers/ supporters of #temu, are aware.

Thanks for reading.

🎯 Online Library Drops Its Legal Battle to Provide Free E-Books Without Publishers' Permission

The Internet Archive has ended its legal battle over offering free e-books online, choosing not to appeal a U.S. Court of Appeals ruling against it. The court upheld a prior decision that found the Archive violated copyright law, granting a permanent injunction.

The case began in 2020 when major publishers, including Penguin Random House and HarperCollins, sued the Archive for distributing over 100 books without authorization. The Archive claimed its "controlled digital lending" program was fair use, but courts disagreed.

Publishers celebrated the ruling, while the Archive expressed disappointment but agreed to comply with removing books at publishers' requests.

Canadian News Outlets Sue OpenAI Over Copyright Infringement

A coalition of Canada’s largest news organizations has launched a groundbreaking lawsuit against OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, alleging unauthorized use of copyrighted news articles to train its artificial intelligence models. This legal action, the first of its kind in Canada, includes major publishers such as Toronto Star, Metroland Media, Postmedia, The Globe and Mail, The Canadian Press, and CBC.

Claims of Illegal Use of Journalism

In a unified statement, the media organizations emphasized the importance of journalism in serving the public interest, accusing OpenAI of exploiting their work for commercial gain without authorization.

“Journalism is in the public interest. OpenAI using other companies’ journalism for their own commercial gain is not. It’s illegal,” the coalition said.

The lawsuit highlights concerns over OpenAI's alleged bypassing of copyright protections like paywalls and disclaimers to scrape large amounts of content for developing its tools, including ChatGPT.

OpenAI’s Response

OpenAI maintains that its models are trained on publicly available data and adhere to "fair use" principles. The company claims to work with publishers by offering tools for attribution and allowing publishers to opt out of their systems if desired.

In response to the allegations, OpenAI stated: “Our software is grounded in fair use and related international copyright principles that are fair for creators and support innovation. We collaborate closely with news publishers in the display, attribution, and linking of their content.”

Legal Demands and Potential Impact

The Canadian media coalition seeks punitive damages of C$20,000 per article, which could amount to billions of dollars in compensation. The lawsuit also demands OpenAI share profits derived from the use of these articles and calls for an injunction to prevent future unauthorized use of their content.

This legal battle mirrors similar cases globally. For instance, the New York Times and other US publishers initiated legal proceedings against OpenAI last year, alleging copyright violations and obstruction of evidence. Similarly, renowned authors like John Grisham have joined lawsuits accusing the company of copyright infringement.

Implications for AI and Journalism

As AI continues to evolve, the case highlights the tension between technological innovation and the protection of intellectual property. With OpenAI recently valued at C$219bn after a significant round of fundraising, the stakes in this legal conflict are monumental.

The outcome of this lawsuit could reshape how AI companies interact with copyrighted material and set a precedent for the global use of journalism in AI training.

Conclusion

This landmark legal action by Canadian publishers not only underscores the value of journalism but also raises critical questions about ethical AI development. As the case unfolds, it will likely have far-reaching consequences for both the tech and media industries.

The entertainment industry is making a stand for creator rights in the age of artificial intelligence. A newly proposed bill, spearheaded by Hollywood heavyweights, aims to increase transparency around how AI companies train their systems, potentially offering creators legal ammunition in the fight against potential copyright infringement. A Call for Transparency: The Schiff Bill On Tuesday, Representative Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) introduced legislation that would require companies developing generative AI systems to disclose the copyrighted works used to train their models. This means companies like OpenAI would be obligated to reveal the source material used to create AI tools like their video generation system, Sora. Hollywood Takes Aim Why Does Transparency Matter? The rise of generative AI tools poses a unique challenge to the entertainment industry. These tools can create content that closely resembles human-made works, raising concerns about copyright infringement. By requiring disclosure of training data, the bill seeks to establish a clearer picture of how AI systems are built, potentially providing evidence for creators who believe their work has been misappropriated. This transparency could empower creators in a few key ways: Identifying Copyright Infringement: If a disclosed list of training data reveals unauthorized use of copyrighted material, creators could use this information to pursue legal action against AI companies. Strengthening Copyright Claims: Knowing how their work was used in AI training could provide creators with a stronger case in potential copyright infringement lawsuits. Establishing Fair Compensation: Transparency could pave the way for discussions about fair compensation for creators whose work contributes to the development of AI systems. Industry Unites in Support The Schiff bill has garnered widespread support from various entertainment industry guilds and unions. These organizations believe their members' work is being used without proper authorization in the training of AI systems. Here's a glimpse into the industry's response: Writers Guild of America West: Praised the bill as a "critical first step" in addressing the unauthorized use of copyrighted material in AI training. (Statement by President Meredith Stiehm) Directors Guild of America: Echoed the sentiment, emphasizing the importance of protecting filmmakers' intellectual property. (Statement by President Lesli Linka Glatter) IATSE International: Highlighted the potential for the bill to empower workers to enforce their rights. (Statement by President Matthew D. Loeb) Additional endorsements come from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), Authors Guild, National Association of Voice Actors (NAVA), and various other creative industry organizations. The Bill's Mechanics: Transparency with Deadlines The proposed legislation outlines specific requirements for AI companies: Disclosure of Training Data: Entities developing generative AI systems must submit a "sufficiently detailed summary of any copyrighted works used" to regulators within 30 days of the product's launch. Database Creation: The U.S. Copyright Office will establish a public database containing the submitted information. Non-Compliance Penalty: Failure to comply with disclosure requirements will result in a fine of $5,000. Navigating the Path to Implementation While the bill enjoys significant industry support, its journey through Congress may be challenging. Here are some potential hurdles: Legal Uncertainty: There's ongoing legal debate surrounding the use of copyrighted material in AI training. Courts are currently grappling with lawsuits from creators, and a clear legal precedent may take time to establish. Competitive Advantage Concerns: AI companies may resist the bill, arguing that disclosing training data compromises their competitive edge. The Human Touch: Protecting Creativity in the AI Age The debate surrounding the Schiff bill highlights the tension between technological advancement and creator rights. As AI continues to evolve, establishing clear guidelines for responsible development is crucial. The message from Hollywood is clear: "Everything generated by AI ultimately originates from a human creative source," states SAG-AFTRA executive director Duncan Crabtree-Ireland. The bill aims to ensure that "human creative content – intellectual property – must be protected."

Protecting Your Intellectual Property: The Role of Copyright Lawyers in Delhi

Introduction to Intellectual Property and Copyright Laws

In today's digital age, where information is easily accessible and shared, protecting your intellectual property has become more crucial than ever. All works of literature, art, inventions, designs, names, symbols, and pictures utilized in trade are considered intellectual property. Copyright is one of the key legal tools for safeguarding intellectual property. It grants exclusive rights to authors and creators, allowing them to control the use and distribution of their work. Understanding copyright laws and the role of copyright lawyers is essential for anyone looking to protect their intellectual property in Delhi.

The Importance of Protecting Your Intellectual Property

Intellectual property is the backbone of innovation and creativity. Whether you are an artist, writer, musician, or entrepreneur, your intellectual property is your most valuable asset. It represents the time, effort, and resources you have invested in creating something unique. Protecting your intellectual property ensures that you have the exclusive right to use, reproduce, distribute, and display your work. It also allows you to monetize your creations and prevents others from profiting from your ideas without your consent. Without proper protection, your intellectual property may be vulnerable to theft, infringement, or unauthorized use, resulting in financial loss and damage to your reputation.

Understanding Copyright Registration

Copyright registration is the formal process of legally establishing your ownership over a creative work. While copyright protection exists automatically from the moment a work is created, registering your copyright provides additional benefits. In Delhi, copyright registration can be done online through the Copyright Office's website. The process involves filling out an application, submitting the required documents, and paying the prescribed fee. Once registered, you receive a copyright certificate that serves as evidence of your ownership. Copyright registration not only strengthens your legal rights but also acts as a deterrent against potential infringers, as it puts them on notice of your exclusive rights.

Copyright Lawyers in Delhi - Their Role and Expertise

Copyright lawyers play a pivotal role in protecting your intellectual property rights. They are legal professionals with expertise in copyright laws and regulations. In Delhi, copyright lawyers are well-versed in the Copyright Act of India and its amendments. They provide comprehensive legal advice and guidance tailored to your specific needs. Whether you are seeking copyright registration, drafting licensing agreements, enforcing your rights, or defending against infringement claims, copyright lawyers in Delhi have the knowledge and experience to assist you. Their role extends beyond legal representation; they also act as strategists, helping you navigate the complex landscape of intellectual property protection.

Benefits of Hiring a Copyright Lawyer in Delhi

Hiring a copyright lawyer in Delhi has numerous benefits. Firstly, they possess specialized knowledge of copyright laws and can help you understand your rights and obligations. They can guide you through the copyright registration process, ensuring that all the necessary documents are in order and submitted correctly. A copyright lawyer can also help you draft licensing agreements, negotiate contracts, and protect your interests in commercial transactions involving your intellectual property. In the unfortunate event of copyright infringement, a copyright lawyer will advocate for your rights, pursuing legal action if necessary. Their expertise and experience provide you with peace of mind, knowing that your intellectual property is in capable hands.

How to Find the Right Copyright Lawyer in Delhi

Finding the right copyright lawyer in Delhi requires careful consideration. Start by researching reputable law firms or individual lawyers specializing in intellectual property law. Look for professionals with experience in copyright registration, licensing, and enforcement. Read client testimonials and reviews to gauge their reputation and track record. Arrange consultations with potential copyright lawyers to discuss your specific needs and assess their knowledge and approach. It is essential to choose a lawyer with whom you feel comfortable and confident in their abilities. Remember that the right copyright lawyer will not only protect your intellectual property but also provide valuable guidance and support throughout the process.

Steps to Copyright Registration Online

Copyright registration in Delhi can be done conveniently online by following a few simple steps. Firstly, visit the Copyright Office's website and create an account. Fill out the online application form, providing accurate details about your work, such as the title, author, and year of creation. Upload a digital copy of your work or a representative portion, as specified by the Copyright Office. Pay the prescribed fee online, and apply. Once your application is processed and approved, you will receive a copyright certificate by mail. It is important to keep a copy of the certificate in a safe place, as it serves as evidence of your copyright ownership.

Common Misconceptions about Copyright Laws

There are several common misconceptions about copyright laws that need to be clarified. One misconception is that copyright protection requires registration. As mentioned earlier, copyright protection exists automatically from the moment a work is created. Registration is not mandatory but highly recommended for added legal benefits. Another misconception is that using a copyright symbol (©) is sufficient for protection. While using the symbol notifies others of your copyright claim, it is not a substitute for proper registration. Additionally, some people believe that copyright protects ideas or concepts. However, copyright protects the expression of ideas, not the ideas themselves. It is important to understand these misconceptions to ensure that your intellectual property is adequately protected.

Copyright Infringement Cases in Delhi - Examples and Outcomes

Delhi has witnessed numerous copyright infringement cases that highlight the importance of intellectual property protection. One such case involved a famous author whose bestselling novel was plagiarized by another writer. The author, backed by a copyright lawyer, successfully sued the plagiarist for damages and secured an injunction against further publication. In another case, a photographer discovered that their copyrighted images were being used without permission by a renowned advertising agency. With the help of a copyright lawyer, the photographer pursued legal action, resulting in a substantial settlement and a public apology from the agency. These examples demonstrate the significant role copyright lawyers play in upholding the rights of creators and deterring infringement.

Conclusion and Final Thoughts on the Role of Copyright Lawyers in Delhi

In conclusion, protecting your intellectual property is essential in today's fast-paced and interconnected world. Copyright lawyers in Delhi play a crucial role in safeguarding your rights and ensuring that your creative works are protected from theft and unauthorized use. From copyright registration to enforcement, their expertise and guidance are invaluable in navigating the complex landscape of intellectual property laws. By hiring a copyright lawyer, you gain a trusted advisor who will advocate for your rights and provide you with peace of mind. So, if you are a creator or entrepreneur in Delhi, don't underestimate the importance of copyright protection and the role of copyright lawyers in preserving your intellectual property.

The New York Times Takes Legal Action Against OpenAI and Microsoft Over Alleged Copyright Infringement

A legal battle has erupted between The New York Times and tech giants OpenAI and Microsoft, as the renowned news outlet accuses the companies of copyright infringement. The lawsuit contends that these tech entities unlawfully utilized millions of Times articles to train AI models, including ChatGPT, creating technology that directly competes with the Times’ services.

An Ongoing Legal Struggle

This lawsuit marks the latest in a series of legal actions aiming to curb the widespread scraping of online content to train large language AI models without compensating content creators. Concerns loom among writers, journalists, and creatives who fear that AI will replicate their work without due acknowledgment or payment.

The Times’ complaint, distinctive for its targeting of OpenAI and Microsoft, alleges that the companies heavily relied on Times’ content, emphasizing it within their AI models. Microsoft’s substantial investment in OpenAI and its position on the board further intensify the legal conflict.

The Allegations

In their filed complaint, The Times emphasized its commitment to informing subscribers, raising concerns about the unlawful use of their content by OpenAI and Microsoft. The Times asserts that the companies took advantage of its journalistic investment without permission or compensation, jeopardizing the Times’ ability to provide its service.

OpenAI responded, expressing surprise and disappointment, highlighting their willingness to collaborate with publishers for mutual benefit. Microsoft, however, remained silent regarding the lawsuit.

The Continuing Dispute

Despite efforts to negotiate compensation, The Times alleges that both companies deemed their use of Times’ content as “fair use,” a claim vehemently refuted by the news outlet. The Times contends that AI models like ChatGPT and Microsoft’s Bing chatbot infringe on their content, providing similar services without proper compensation.

New York Times sues OpenAI and Microsoft for copyright infringement

Industry Pushback Against AI

The Times’ legal pursuit aligns with a broader resistance from leading newsrooms like CNN, who deployed measures to block OpenAI’s web crawlers from accessing their content. Similar lawsuits involving prominent personalities and fiction writers have surfaced, reflecting a collective concern about AI’s use of copyrighted materials without consent.

The Potential Implications

The Times lawsuit seeks substantial damages, without specifying an exact amount, and demands a permanent injunction against further infringement. Legal experts anticipate this case to potentially set a precedent, as the legality of using copyrighted material to train AI models remains an unsettled matter within the legal landscape.

The Battle for Compensation and Control

The clash between traditional media and burgeoning AI technologies epitomizes the struggle for fair compensation and acknowledgment in the evolving digital landscape. As the legal confrontation unfolds, it embodies the broader quest for equitable treatment of copyrighted content in the era of rapidly advancing artificial intelligence.

The Impact of Fake Websites & Counterfeit Products on Ecommerce Marketplaces

Fake websites are designed to deceive users into believing they are legitimate online stores or service providers. Often mimicking the look, feel and branding of well-known companies, these websites lure unsuspecting visitors into providing personal information, making purchases or sharing financial details.  

The rise of e-commerce has made it easier for cybercriminals to create convincing fake websites leading to potential identity theft, credit fraud and data breaches. Many users fall victim to these scams due to the professional appearance of the sites complete with similar logos, domains, and content as the original brands. 

How to spot a fake website 

The website looks the same but has the wrong / similar domain name. 

They provide unbelievable offers or discounts to the users like ‘up to 95% discount’, etc. 

The website doesn’t work as expected, like some of the buttons don’t work, etc.

🎯 Canadian News Publishers Sue OpenAI Over Alleged Copyright Infringement

A group of Canadian news publishers, including The Canadian Press, Torstar, Globe and Mail, Postmedia, and CBC/Radio-Canada, has sued OpenAI for allegedly using their content without permission to train its ChatGPT AI system.

The publishers claim OpenAI violates copyright laws by scraping content and profiting without compensating creators, undermining significant investments in journalism. They emphasized the need for AI companies to respect intellectual property and operate lawfully.

OpenAI responded, stating its models are trained on publicly available data under fair use principles and that it collaborates with publishers, offering opt-out options for content use.

This lawsuit is the first of its kind in Canada, though similar cases are ongoing in the U.S., including one by The New York Times. While some organizations pursue legal action, others, like The Associated Press and News Corp., have signed licensing agreements with OpenAI.

Canada's Online News Act mandates compensation for news use by platforms like Google and Meta but has yet to clarify its application to AI systems.

Fashion Feud: H&M Sues Shein for Copyright Infringement in Hong Kong

Hello, Tumblr users! Welcome to our weekly newsletter, where we bring you the latest news and trends in the fashion world. This week, we have a juicy story for you: H&M sues fast fashion rival Shein for copying their designs!

H&M, the Swedish fashion giant, has filed a lawsuit against Shein, the Chinese online retailer, for copyright infringement in Hong Kong. The litigation has been underway since 2021, and H&M is seeking unspecified damages and an injunction to stop Shein from infringing on its copyright and trademarks.

According to the court documents, H&M has provided photos of dozens of items from swimwear to sweaters that it claims Shein has stolen from its designs. The items include a floral bikini, a striped cardigan, a polka dot dress, and a leopard print coat. H&M has accused Shein of copying not only its products, but also its logos and packaging.

Shein, on the other hand, has declined to comment on the pending litigation. The company is known for its fast and cheap fashion, offering thousands of new products every week at low prices. It has become a popular choice among young consumers, especially on social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram.

The Hong Kong court heard the case for the first time last September, and the judge allowed the case to proceed. The next hearing is scheduled for July 31. This is not the first time Shein has faced legal troubles for intellectual property violations. The company has been sued by several independent designers and artists in the US this year, alleging that Shein has used a secretive algorithm to identify and copy their designs.

What do you think of this fashion feud? Do you think H&M has a strong case against Shein? Do you prefer quality over quantity when it comes to fashion? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!

That’s all for this week’s newsletter. Stay tuned for more updates and insights from the fashion world. Until next time, stay stylish! 😎
