3/27 Intellectual Property Rights

Talk about intellectual property rights.

Intellectual property rights include things like copyrights, trademarks, patents, and industrial designs. Intellectual property is protected by law. You have to pay royalties to the right-holder to legally use intellectual property. Copyright cover artistic works. Books, films, songs, TV shows, and even letter fonts can all be protected by copyrights. Violating copyright laws is often called plagiarism. On the other hand, creating fake designer products breaks trademark laws. Often times, companies accuse each other of infringing each other's patents or designs. These legal battles are all based on intellectual property right laws.
