An interesting post about copyright. I just read the following thread over at the Authonomy message board, and wondered what the rules are, and how they apply to the original post.<BR/><BR/>http://www.authonomy.com/Forum/Posts.aspx?threadId=108<BR/><BR/>It would be useful to know Authonomy's view on this sort of use. Regardless of the costs involved in pursuing such a case, is it allowed? Is it

Sending an envelope to yourself is known as poor man's copyright, and hasn't ever been shown to prove anything over the years.<BR/><BR/>As for the rights implications of posting work on Authonomy: well, my answer to that would be that so long as one doesn't post too much, one hasn't, probably, used up first rights in one's work. If Authonomy would take a smallish sample (a couple of thousand

Ok, so that answers copywrite questions, but what about first rights?<BR/><BR/>I have seen many a conversation about not showing ones completed publishable material online because by doing so you are giving up first rights.<BR/><BR/>What is Authonomy's answer to this?

I guess if it is too expensive to pursue the infringer, then it is probably not worth it?<BR/><BR/>I really think the copyright issue is resolved as described by this article. <BR/><BR/>As to copying text off webpages, it is like locking your front door: it disuades the casual thief, but not the determined criminal with a bit of nous.<BR/><BR/>One question for the authonomy legal eagles:<BR/><BR

Thank you, that's a helpful summary.<BR/><BR/>One thing that might perhaps be stressed is the enormous cost of bringing a civil case, or even sending a few solicitor's letters to the copyright infringer.<BR/><BR/>JK Rowling can afford to pursue plagiarists; the rest of us probably can't.<BR/><BR/>Luckily, as you say, it's not a problem most of us will ever have to deal with.
