Whenever someone creates something, they have a sense of ownership on their creations. Copyright Violations come into picture when someone copies, sells, distributes, adapts, displays that creation without authorized permission.

 Copyrighting your own work of literature, music, and art is important to sustain its ownership. So, even if someone violates the copyright rules, you can get compensation and rightful ownership back.

With the term, Copyright comes in line words like Piracy, Theft and Freebooting. Mostly we use piracy to talk about unfair copying of someone’s work. Freebooting is used to describe unauthorized imitation of online media such as videos on platforms like YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and so on.
