Example of Copyright violations: a) Unauthorized download all of the write up and graphics off my website and using it on their website.b) Unauthorized copying the same floral designs which I created for my clothing company are being copied and used by other without my permission.c) I took beautiful pictures of Himalayas Hills while I was on tour and uploaded in my social media website (Face book, Twitter etc.) for my friends and later on I noticed photographs that I previously took, now being used in a catalog to sell someone else’s product. I never gave them permission to do so.d) A computer program was developed by my company for some scientific studies purpose and the source code of my company is being duplicated by competitor’s computer programmer/company.e) The song that I wrote and produced is now being used and distributed by my former band member.f) I am going to send a synopsis of my script to a production company and they want me to sign a release form.
