RE: Week 10 Discussion
Hello class i am picking william writer because of his great novel he is creating. And i believe one of the rights he has to get is copy righting so that his ownership of the story or novel is his completely. And he can show ownership if one tries to claim it and maybe even get credit. Another intellectual property he could apply is a patent for legal situations that may arise. Primary copyrights give the orignator all original rights as far material. And also copying or sharing as well.
