Copyright Challenges

A challenge that I see to existing copyright norms and laws is website copyright. It is extremely easy for someone else to take HTML and CSS and make it their "own" code. It is very similar to someone taking a paper and making it their own words. I think learning how to code is about to take off and a lot more people are going to start doing things themselves instead of hiring others; therefore, one way to prepare is to really enforce laws now and not let as many slide by.

    Saydee, you are right. It is very easy to copy code and make it 'your own'. Most HTML files are going to look similar (header, navbar, content, footer, etc.). It is easy to make changes to make it your own code.

    I agree with you 100%. Technology today is making it easier for people to take someone else's work, an easily change it to make it their own.

    Copyright
    I think it is true that copyrighting other people's code is easy to do, so this is a big copyright challenge.
