In the article titled “Privacy Settings and Safety Tips for Using Flickr” the author discusses ways to use the settings to ensure that you get the privacy that you want. In this next article “Privacy is Dead on Flickr” the author points out that photos that are posted are automatically public. He brings up that there is no point in posting photos if not for others to see it. In the final article “Flickr Launches Image Marketplace Initiative” the author describes a new but dangerous addition to the Flickr sharing space: a marketplace that buys your images and sells them. With this, you lose not only your ownership but also your privacy since the terms and conditions state that you must give your name, age, gender, and address along with each photo. This sounds odd, but this is a part of the here and now future that we live in. Privacy is dead.

Flickr provides their users with tips to protect their intellectual property but, it leaves many holes for theft to come through. Additionally, according to Yahoo’s privacy information, they share/sell your account information to other third party companies. In the end, your photos are still susceptible to those with access to the website and Flickr is not responsible for protecting those photos and your Flickr/Yahoo account information WILL be shared if you make an account.

corina piller's comment, November 11, 2014 10:47 PM
copyright has been apart of our history since the nineteenth-century that intertwined the idea of an evolving Western civilization. Law is something that constitutes culture and it cannot be divorced from law. Cultural scholars are focusing on copyright as a field of research expanding into the discipline of law. The article stated copyright is the hallmark of civilization and reflected the role of print culture. The birth of copyright was influenced by romanticism and enlightenment philosophy in the late eighteenth and nineteeth centuries. Contemporary debates about copyright and piracy rely on inherited values and structures of power. Fredriksson, Martin. "Copyright Culture And Pirate Politics."

Rachel P's comment, November 11, 2014 11:28 AM
From our past and toward our future, copyright has always been a vague mystery. According to the article that I found, that mashups are just a representation of our lack of concern for copyright laws. Especially with youtube, it is such a social thing that we only do to get attention that we often forget that we are breaking rules. The article concludes with how there is little hope for the future, which I guess is understandable but super depressing. He, Wu, and Shenghua Zha.

Emily Rumpf's comment, November 11, 2014 11:28 AM
The article that I read talks about the issues with the copyright law that mashups, and music sampling create. It talks about what is considered "fair use" and how much of a clip is too much. This article also talks about the history of mashups, and the repeated clash of this art form with the copyright law. New technology is emerging to make mashups even easier to produce, allowing creators to take many clips out of context and give them a different meaning. I believe that the copyright law and "fair use" act need to be more clear cut if we are ever to solve this constant conflict between mashups and copyright infringement. de Jesus, Joseph Georg Michael D.

Erik Lewis's comment, November 11, 2014 12:05 PM
I found an article on the changing nature of copyright law. It outlined how ABC and a computer program have been cited for copyright infringement, as an example. The article makes it seem like the law's ideas of copyright may be shifting in the correct direction, and as someone who is very concerned with copyright law, that feels like a step in the right direction.

College Lecture Series - Neil Postman - "The Surrender of Culture to Technology" - YouTube

From www.youtube.com - December 9, 2014 12:38 PM
A lecture delivered by Neil Postman on Mar. 11, 1997 in the Arts Center. Based on the author's book of the same title. Neil Postman notes the dependence of A...
John Shank's insight:

"...my five ideas about technological change. First, that we always pay a price for technology; the greater the technology, the greater the price. Second, that there are always winners and losers, and that the winners always try to persuade the losers that they are really winners. Third, that there is embedded in every great technology an epistemological, political or social prejudice. Sometimes that bias is greatly to our advantage. Sometimes it is not. The printing press annihilated the oral tradition; telegraphy annihilated space; television has humiliated the word; the computer, perhaps, will degrade community life. And so on. Fourth, technological change is not additive; it is ecological, which means, it changes everything and is, therefore, too important to be left entirely in the hands of Bill Gates. And fifth, technology tends to become mythic; that is, perceived as part of the natural order of things, and therefore tends to control more of our lives than is good for us."

The article I read related to intellectual property and the classroom. Many teachers create their own curriculum for classes, and the question arose, 'Who owns that curriculum?' Should teachers be creating custom courses, materials, etc... that can be sold to other teachers and districts. I think that adds a whole new element to teaching. This could potentially lead to all kids of certain grades and levels to be taking the same standardized course. But if everyone is learning the same thing the same way, is that actually good?

In this insightful article that I found on the internet, I learned about copyright. That's right, copyright. Now what exactly did I learn? More about how we never use it. This article talked about how we justify ourselves for never really caring about it and what not. Especially brought on by the new age of digital natives, there seems to never be a solution. However we can hope for the future to one day resolve these issues. Edwards, Lee, et al. "Discourse, Justification And Critique: Towards A Legitimate Digital Copyright Regime?."

The article I chose discusses how a number of tracks have been flagged and removed from SoundCloud. SounCloud is know as the Youtube of audio. It was once known as a place for emerging producers to upload and share music for free. Famous Dj Kaskade had left the platform after 32 of his files were flagged as potential copyright violators and taken down. Kaskade later posted a letter on the website behhing lawmakers and other websites that share files to "free the music." In the meantime, DJs are having a hard time finding a home for covers, mashups, and remixes.

Copyright exist for a very long time the authors life pulse 75 years. The article also goes on to explain what goes on with the copyright law when it goes wrong. Eshleman, Michael O.

My article that I read was about internet addiction as a cause to why we do not properly copyright. I found it interesting that the author talked about how we never really think about our actions because it is something so second nature to us now. The internet seems bad but like why do we keep using it? Navarro, Jordana N., et al. "Addicted To Pillaging In Cyberspace: Investigating The Role Of Internet Addiction In Digital Piracy."
