A friend of mine

posted something that

posted.
I quote from GenkiGoth::
"This is a
serious threat to anyone in the art field (i.e all of us)
This is a great dum-down by Goth that he posted on reddit:
For those who don't know what the OW bill is, in a nut shell it pretty much makes it legal to infringe upon any artists work that isn't registered($$) with regional copyright offices in the private sector. It removes the copyright that is automatically imposed on all works (your protection). Think of it this way, if you were to pitch an idea or logo to a company, they like it but you have not registered it and paid the fee for it, they can tell you "no thanks" then turn around and use it anyway. So you are mad and want to sue, but the COMPANY THAT STOLE THE WORK has decided that the most they can be sued for is $50... sound fair to you?
And it doesn't just stop there. You lose the rights to your doodles, sketchbook drawings, margin sketches...everything you've ever done in your life.
Here's the link to the podcast thing
[link]listen to the whole thing if you can, it's got alot of important stuff on the bill!
and the 133 pg article on it
[link]As an artist, no matter what it is you do, this is serious threat that can't be allowed to pass! Copy and paste this to get the word out because this affects ALL of us!!!
