copyright

Copyright is a Act which was put in place in the year 1988. Copyrights protects the original work of authorship. When the copyright was put into place it meant people are not allowed to copy anything which has the copyright logo on it as it could mean you can get prosecuted for it. You can use people work if you put a reference to it or get permission to use it. Sometimes people infringe copyright by reproducing and distributing music or even books without asking permission to use it first. The law governing copyright in the UK is Copyright, Design and Patents Act (CDPA)
