COPYLEFT: When Copying Is Not Plagiarism

In the vast universe of the Internet there are multiple opportunities to protect or exploit creative works, be they images or texts, on condition that you don't fall into inertia, unconscious violations, or naivety.

To protect yourself, it is sufficient that you know the rights and limits that govern the various activities you can do online.

For example, in Italy if we want to protect a photograph, a drawing, a piece of text or music, etc., but at the same time to disseminate it, we can invoke Article 1 of Law No. 633 of April 22, 1941, the Copyright Law, according to which "Works of the mind having a creative character and belonging to literature, music, figurative arts, architecture, theatre or cinematography, whatever their mode or form of expression, shall be protected in accordance with this Law".
