If you’re not living under a rock then I imagine you have heard of
Pinterest. It’s the newest form of
social media allowing users to post their interests on an online pin board as
well as “like” and comment on various photos, DIY ideas, recipes, etc. I have to say that it is quite addictive, and
for the most part from what I have experienced the pins are linked to blogs or
websites that promote that item or recipe or whatever. It all seems harmless, right? I thought so too until I just read this
article posted on Facebook about copyright violations and how it affects the
users of Pinterest. Of course I had to look into it a little more before
deciding to delete my account. As they
say, the most commonly told lie is, “I have read and understood the terms and
conditions”.
Under the About section on Pinterest there are sections labeled Terms
and Copyright. In both of these sections
the terms and conditions regarding copyright infringement are detailed very
thoroughly. You will also find that the
site takes this very seriously and even promotes awareness of what your rights
are and those of the content owners. They are also very clear about where the
responsibility and liabilities lie. So basically all this article does really
is bring to light that people never really read or understand the terms and
conditions before agreeing to them. As
with any website where you plan to create or distribute content you should take
the time to understand the implications of your actions before creating a world
of trouble for yourself. Pinteresting….don’t you think?
Love the play on words - will need your hepl to delete pinterest!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI like clocks.
ReplyDeleteOne of the symptoms of diabetes is fatigue. Exhaustion can disrupt all aspects of living. With high or low blood sugar level diabetes can directly cause fatigue. High blood glucose makes blood thicker so it is hard to circulate. Cells get less oxygen and nutrients they need. High blood glucose cause fatigue due to inflammation. When the sugar level is low it also causes fatigue because there is not enough fuel for the cell to work with.
