Copyright


Growing up in a technology based generation Words and meanings stay the same But sentences seem to get rearranged Therefore, how can copyright infringement occur? See, kids are learning to copy what they see Idolizing the people they wish to be It's like society frowns on individuality Not only are the rights of physical work being stolen but; ideas are being duplicated as well. It's important to embrace originality and not just accept counterfeit Copyright infringement hurts Emotionally hitting whomever's ideas you're stealing Not to mention the money aspect of it all Piracy alone causes the economy to fall If I'm being too personal Let me lay down the law "Any people who willfully infringes a copyright shall be punished." But, without getting too deep into legalities Let's just stop and think about reality None of us are scarecrows, we all have a brain. No two people can have no two ideas that are EXACTLY the same It's okay to use some else's work as a reference But, in the end, your preference Should always be to use ideas that are your own.
