Copyrighting.

Can people own more than their shirt and car? Yes indeed they can. If they have come up with some great ideas and doesn’t want someone else to take the credit of the idea, they should copyright them. Being artistic is a job; people put time, effort and talent for making them.
Had I written a beautiful song, I wouldn’t like it if someone else took the credit and got famous for my creativity. They stole it from me, and it’s a crime. So be aware, if you broadcast things to be yours and its not, you are a criminal. You can show things that aren’t yours, but then the author's name and source shall be mentioned with it. My beautiful song is an intellectual property and my shirt is a physical property. I own both, but the difference is that I have to claim the copyright for my song. The shirt I buy from a store. 


Explanation of copyright.



For to copyright things I must contact World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), this is an organisation established of UN in 1967. An organisation which courage creativity thoughts and protects the intellectual property around the world. This mean it protects the work people make. If you have written a book, song, novel and so on, you should copyright it. If you do so, you own it. If not, someone could steel it from you. 


For to have some further reading about (WIPO), I can suggest a coupple of pages. Theese are the pages: Wikipedia, WIPO and icannwiki. I really suggest you take a look at theese pages, and read some more. It is an important subject everyone should know about. 
A man steals Intellectual Property.



To buy software cost a lot of money. If you need some software occasionally, it is a big cost. Today you have the opportunity to rent software for a period of time. Creative Cloud-membership gives you access to applications like Photoshop, Illustrator and Adobe and so on… This way you don’t have to be criminal and steel the software from someone. There are people who have made them and copyrighted the software.
Software is difficult to share, but an example it would be nice if they were able to share their licenses for some software, are in public schools. They have software which isn’t so much in use all time. It's only wish thinking that it's possible to share software between schools, like free software among them. Friprogsenteret” is a competence center for free software.There are many sites it's possible to download free software or get more information. I listed up some pages that is about WIPO over the film.


Some places you can get legally free software.



In the end I want to summarize:
If you came up with something new, it doesn't matter if it is a beautiful song, a book, or something you has built. It is yours, no matter. Then you should copyright it. If not someone can steel it from you, and make money of it. You shouldn't undo to other either. There is laws against it, and you could come in jail for it.
