In this article, I address another common confusion -- the conflation of copyright (or copyright infringement) and plagiarism -- and rationalize why I think being the subject of plagiarism allegations is much more damaging. The argument here is not that plagiarism ceases to exist or should not be punished, but that plagiarism allegations are too easy to make, not hard enough to prove, and potentially too damaging to reputation to continue not to have workable and neutral systems in place manage accusations and violations. In this regard, copyright's reliance on several different systems for charges, punishment, and remedies is far superior.]]> https://corecopyright.org/2009/12/07/plagiarism/feed/ 1 K Matthew Dames https://corecopyright.org/2009/12/03/copyright_ip/ https://corecopyright.org/2009/12/03/copyright_ip/#comments Thu, 03 Dec 2009 14:00:51 +0000 http://corecopyright.wordpress.com/?p=71 https://corecopyright.org/2009/12/03/copyright_ip/feed/ 15 K Matthew Dames Forms of Intellectual Property https://corecopyright.org/2009/12/01/why-copyright-is-important/ https://corecopyright.org/2009/12/01/why-copyright-is-important/#comments Tue, 01 Dec 2009 14:00:03 +0000 http://corecopyright.wordpress.com/?p=106 https://corecopyright.org/2009/12/01/why-copyright-is-important/feed/ 3 K Matthew Dames https://corecopyright.org/2009/11/23/comparison/ https://corecopyright.org/2009/11/23/comparison/#respond Mon, 23 Nov 2009 14:00:10 +0000 http://corecopyright.wordpress.com/?p=60 Copycense are complimentary publications that focus on the law and business of creativity and the content that results from it.
