BEST PRACTICE
AS A COPYRIGHT USER ONLINEYOUR RIGHTS responsibilities
• If someone else created a valuable piece of content, don’t use it without CREDITING them. Simple.
• In keeping with FAIR USE, do not reproduce whole stories. Use only the portions of headline and content needed to make your point or identify the story. Add your own commentary and content, and link to the original wherever possible.
• Read Terms & Conditions or rely on the counsel of someone who does. You may be signing over YOUR COPYRIGHTS to sites you use. That free tool you’re using is using you, make sure you know what you’re trading.
• INNOCENT INFRINGEMENT is no defense. Until laws have evolved take care, use Creative Commons or copyleft resources and reward those artists, scientists and academics who share valuable portions their work.

BEST PRACTICE
AS A COPYRIGHT OWNERYOUR RIGHTS responsibilities
• COPYFRAUD of works that are free for everyone to use - seeking licenses and fees to reproduce works in the public domain - is infringement.
• Learn about FAIR USE and make it easy for those who want to reference your work to know how to, in a way that highlights, links back and doesn’t infringe copyright.
• Deriving financial reward from your work is not exclusive to traditional copyright. Flexible, permissionless licenses are available that enables greater (aka viral) distribution for digital content and retains COMMERCIAL value for the license holder.
• Cease and desist letters used to try to silence criticism is a meritless expression of trademark and copyrights. Research the legal right to PARODY and bounds of free expression.

greater openness and neutrality in scientific, intellectual and political exchange.
He is what my grandfather would have called a real mensch.”
“This is a man who could have taken a hundredth of a cent for every commercial transaction for just five years and been rich beyond computation,he could have linked himself with corporations, put his name about in public, branded himself and offered his opinions on everything and everyone.
