This seems dumb. If she hadn’t told them how she created it, it would have been copyright? Is the copyright office going to start asking artists how they create their work now? This is just a bad decision on their part.
- ROTMetro 4y agoThere are laws and rules for copyright, and when you claim copyright, you make a legal claim to the government that those rules apply to yourself and the piece in question. TDIL: When I make legal statements to the government, such as that copyright applies to a work I am submitting, those statements must be true.
