Legal and Ethical Societal Issues in media and Information

The lesson is all about REPUBLIC ACT NO. 10175 Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012
which is a law in the Philippines approved on September 12, 2012, which aims to

address legal issues concerning online interactions and the Internet. I learned on the
lesson are A legal device that gives the creator of a literary, artistic, musical, or other
creative work the sole right to publish and sell that work. Copyright owners have the
right to control the reproduction of their work, including the right to receive payment
for that reproduction. An author may grant or sell those rights to others, including
publishers or recording companies. Violation of a copyright is called infringement.
An act or instance of using or closely imitating the language and thoughts of another
author without authorization; the representation of that author’s work as one’s own, as
by not crediting the original .Bullying that takes place online, or using electronic
technology such as cell phones, computers, and tablets over communication tools
including social media sites, text messages, chat, and websites. Examples of
cyberbullying: text messages or emails composed to insult or demean; rumors or false
statements spread by email or posted on social networking sites; and humiliating
photos, videos, websites, or fake profiles deliberately shared across social media. The
excessive use of computers to the extent that it interferes with daily life. This
excessive use may, for example, interfere with work or sleep, result in problems with
social interaction, or affect mood, relationships, and thought processes. An economic
inequality between groups in terms of access to, use of, or knowledge of ICT. The
divide within countries can refer to inequalities between individuals, households,
businesses, and geographic areas at different socioeconomic (and other demographic)
levels. The Global digital divide designates countries as the units of analysis, and
examines the divide between developing and developed countries on an international
scale. I enjoy the lesson because its about warning to be more careful around any
internet platforms.

3. The right to make copies of the work

Because some of the work can’t be copied it needs an authorization from the
rightful owner before it copy and post in public.

Cite practical situation when to apply knowledge in intellectual property, copyright,

and fair use guidelines

In response to course work learners produce papers, projects, presentations, web sites, art
works, videos, multimedia, and music performances- all of which are made richer, more
interesting and more effective by the judicious use of quotations, visuals, media clips and other
copyrighted resources drawn from the real world. As result of their learning and experience,
instructors, consultants, and learners will produce original and creative works that have value
for personal use, portfolios and perhaps for or future commercial use. As a result, instructors,
consultants, and learners need to understand the basic concepts and principles behind
intellectual property and the legal methods employed to protect those products from
unauthorized use. Just as we understand that plagiarizing written works is dishonest, we need
to recognize that outside certain limited conditions- unauthorized appropriation of non-text
material is illegal. The use of copyrighted photographs, drawings, charts, video, audio, software,
animations and other types of creative products outside those narrow boundaries, is not just
unethical.
