All your pics belong to everyone now

Everyone = Silicon Valley ad platforms tech companies

So.

This is the pathetic situation we find ourselves in, is it? Check out this well written and extremely scary article by Andrew Orlowski www.theregister.co.uk/2013/04/…

It looks like the morons in our (British) government just want every illustrator / photographer / creator to just stay away from the internet entirely.  This kind of moronic drivel has been going on for several years now and I'm really seriously considering closing down my facebook and deviantArt accounts as well as my online folio due to this. What other choice do I have? As a small time professional creator, how an I / we expected to get by in life if we don't even 'legally own' our own work, our own imaginations? Can you see the idiots in Whitehall trying to pass this act with any movies or music that finds itself online? Will they hell as much. But as usual the little guy gets the shaft for the benefit of big American companies.

What to do, people? What to do?

Carlos.

Well for a start I'm going back to slapping my name on my work. The gist of it is if there's nothing to identify you to that work when they decide to steal it tough. So my come back will be a big fuck off name on it where they can see it. I'm also in the process of getting my own copyright on my characters since I intend on selling comics soon & will need that anyway.

I wouldn't worry anyway the spineless retards in the UK government back track on everything they say they're gunna do. Remember all the promises they've made since they started screwing the country over? How many have actually happened & how many have been backtracked on so they could go with the route most likely to mess with everyone? Even them saying "No really we ARE doing this 1" isn't a sure thing like stopping people coming to the UK to sponge off benefits. Because someone else said no they're considering backtracking on that too
