For your delectation and possible dissection: a Copyright Troll Infographic

This blogger receives offers or requests on a pretty well weekly basis from people who compile infographics  on a variety of issues. Most are of only tangential relevance to IP law or of no relevance at all.  However, the infographic below is right on target so far as copyright is concerned, bearing the title “What Every Website Owner Should Know About Copyright Trolls”.  There are two things that should surprise no-one. One is that the law cited is that of the United States; the other is that there's nothing on the infographic to say so.  Readers' comments are of course welcomed.

The True Cost of Piracy: an infographic to set the discussion agenda

Though I've not seen it till today, I expect that the infographic featured below, kindly supplied by BackgroundCheck,  has been doing the rounds and I apologise in advance if readers of this blog are already familiar with it.  The True Cost of Piracy [now, that's a title which is a hostage to fortune] is quite US-flavoured.  It's also quite eye-catching from an aesthetic point of view and raises lots of discussion points. Infographics like this always remind me of the diagrams of the human digestive system which I had to study at secondary school.  From a didactic point of view, their lay-out makes them both easy to follow, and thus absorb, but also easier to dissect when criticising their content.

Readers' comments are warmly welcomed.
