Lets here your views on changes to copyright Law, or perhaps let everyone know what you are doing to stop these changes. Discuss..
Get it off your chest, lets talk!

Since the changes are currently merely 'proposed,' the overall negative reaction should help the deciders see sense before it's too late.

I think in the end sense will prevail, some have suggested knee capping but don't think it will get to that hopefully

It's all a bit unclear so far. It seems to apply to orphan work only which means that if someone finds one of my images and there's no way to know it's mine they can use it.
I see a huge rise in watermarking and EXIF data properly filled in, that's the only way you can make sure your images can be traced back to you the original owner.
It's all a bit mad though, it's like finding a book without the cover (and therefore the name of the author is missing) and use the content for free as it pleases you!
I really hope sense will prevail in the end!

What is interesting is why it was felt that such an amendment was required in the first place. What is the problem they were trying to solve and who did they consult because I really doubt that it makes any sense that this would be the best solution.
