Ethical use manifests itself in the form of abiding by the laws of society. Users need to understand that stealing or causing damage to other people’s work, identity, or property online is a crime. There are certain rules of society that users need to be aware in an ethical society. These laws apply to anyone who works or plays online. Hacking into others information, downloading illegal music, plagiarizing, creating destructive worms, viruses or creating Trojan Horses, sending spam, or stealing anyone’s identify or property is unethical."

1. Is your work as a student copyrighted, such as the last research report you wrote? Do you own your work and ideas? Do you need to file a legal document with the government to have something copyrighted?

3. Copyright is a law that protects the originators and owners of ideas, information, and images. What confuses you about copyright? When does Fair Use apply? Why isn't Fair Use stealing?
4. Have you ever heard of Creative Commons? How is it different from Copyright? (Hint: Does CC ease Copyright restrictions?) What types of media would it be easier to share using Creative Commons?
5. How many times have you taken pictures from Google Images or anywhere on the Internet---without giving credit? Did you understand it's against copyright and it's STEALING to use images without credit, and sometimes without permission. What did you learn from this video about how to fix this HUGE problem?
