Good afternoon everyone. I have been reading into copyright this week and when I came across some videos about creative commons, I was blown away about how easy it is to illegally use material on the internet. I did not realize that we are required to ask permission to use information from writers of articles and papers that are copyrighted to use their work in papers of our own. I thought it was as easy as citing the information, but apparently that is not always the case. This surprised me. It is up to users of the internet to use it responsibly. It is also our responsibility to educate ourselves and those we are responsible for about situations like this. We can also educate people about creative commons so that more material will be easier to access in the future without the fear of if we are breaking the law or not. I will be taking more care in the future to pay attention to copyright laws, and will be teaching them to people around me.
