Copy Not Right!

As Hossan Leong said, Copy is not Right! People put their heart and soul into supplying the information and photographs. Some of them had to probably get special permission or may a sum of money to take photographs of the event. It is not fair if we simply take them of the internet. That is equivalent to stealing. When people post photographs on the internet, it is for others to see, not for them to use. Even if they do not have the copyright symbol, work, pictures and other stuff automatically has copyright once they are created. Books also should not be copied, especially not the whole book. We should buy the books ourselves and give the authors what they deserve(their money!) If we do not even respect this simple rule,the world will be chaotic with people and companies suing and counter-suing for all their lives worth. One of the most important creations of modern times is the patent and the copyright. They let people know who is the original creator of something without confusion. A famous example of this is the invention of the telephone. A slight problem is that people can invent something but not patent it,so when someone else claims to have invented it, you have no proof that you invented it first.
