Copyright Infringement & You
These days almost everything on the Internet carries a copyright notice, Pictures,websites articles and often people acquire these materials the find the owner is threatening legal action for infringing their copyright.
When this happens Don’t panic most of these threats are just that worded to scare you into removing the material, however you may not have to, see although placing a copyright © on a page or a picture it does not mean that the owner is eligible to sue.
In order for the owner of a work to sue for infringement that work must be duly registered for Intellectual property copyright and General copyright in the country the infringement has occurred, now the Berne Convention does allow basic transfer of copyright between participating countries but the fact remains there needs to be a physical copyright in place to legally sue someone for copyright infringement.
This being the case it is your right to challenge the owner of the work to provide proof that a Registered copyright indeed exists and without that proof you are not legally required to honor any copyright notices .
Courts will not hear cases where no Registered Copyright or Intellectual property Copyright exists, the same might be said for trademarks and brands however it is more likely that a trademark or brand has been registered whereas most website designers, amateur artists even software developers falsely rely on if they have the © on their work it is covered.
Now i am not a lawyer but i do know how to read and there are plenty of articles written by experts on copyright law available on the internet which outline how to copyright a work so that it has legal status, I have included below a few of these links where i sourced my information for this article.

Sphere: Related ContentNew vision for Velocity Marketer
Velocity Marketer Company moving forward.
With the hard hit on such services as our website hosting system and the announced retirement or semi retirement of CEO Dave Gilbert, new leadership in Sr. Partner Andy Anderson has stepped forward to consolidate and advance our business.
Velocity Marketer currently holds over 20 domains and websites with most either marked for future website development or used in a manner to generate traffic and buzz about our programs.
Several of these domains will soon be placed for sale via SEDO, the leading resource for Domain Name sales. Currently offered for sale is PR5 Easy Search Live search engine which has been decided no longer meets our future development goals and has been placed on the back burner the last couple of months.
Easy Search Live was established on the domain easysearch.com.au in 2003 and mover to easysearchlive.com in 2005 and is a high traffic, well ranked website and domain name that has built a great reputation in the alternative search engine category.
UPDATE: We have pulled our listing for Easy Search Live and redirected that domain to send immediate traffic to our new and drastically improved search engine AZ Locate. The new search engine has such major features as mobile search, and social media search tools and expands our service beyond it’s former limits.
Our business model moving forward will be laser targeted on our growing wordpress theme, CMS templates, and prepackages website themes, tools and training resources through My Viral Business. In addition we will remain active and moving forward with My Viral Blog . We have also just launched AZ Locate Internet Search Engine with social media search and quick view for comparison shopping. We are also in development of a micro blogging system at Hot Spot Social which has entered Beta Testing and is awaiting a upgrade to the current RSS output before being released.
Over the next couple of days a total changing of the guard will be completed, all reference to our former hosting services will be removed or modified to reflect the end of that program. At that point we will begin to add new designs and products to My Viral Business and expand promotion of our affiliate program and discount club operations.
Please bear with us during this time of change and growth,
Andy Anderson
