copyright

blog question: Why is copyright important? What aspects of it have you encountered in your life? Write about a specific instance that you encountered.

Copyright is important, because it's important to give the rightful person credit for their work. Without copyright others can claim one thing to be their own even if it wasn't originally. The one who came up with whatever it was that they stole will not receive any credit which isn't fair. A time I encountered copyright in my life was when a friend tried to cheat on my test. I had known the test was coming up so took my time to study and understand the subjects to be covered. My friend however didn't do the same. So when the test came I was prepared and earned my grade, however she wanted to cheat off my paper to help her grade which was unfair to not only me but her in the long run. I didn't let her do so and though she was mad at me for the meantime she soon understood why and since hasn't tried to do it again.
