Absolutely amazing very impressive
Trademark is one of the safest ways to protect your work.
“trademark” (TM) means almost nothing in court. Obtaining a registered trademark (R in a circle) is very expensive and time consuming. Then you HAVE TO pay to somehow monitor everywhere for abuses, and if someone abuses it you have to pay to go to court to defend it or risk losing your rights in your own trademark. People like synthesizer designers Tom Oberheim, and the late Robert Moog and Dave Smith all literally lost rhe legal right to do business under their own NAME this way. There no magical protections for intellectual property rights. Pirates will always pirate.
Thought this was about something else
Hey Gillian, I have a couple questions you didn’t answer in this video:
1. what about people downloading your YouTube videos and using it in a course? This has happened to me. A well known brand in another country has downloaded my videos and has been using them in their course. Is there any way to remove the download option from YouTube?
2. what about another influencer taking your course, stealing the entire thing, and selling it as their own course? I’ve seen this happen a few times and it’s not some shady $100 site, it’s another content creator who has built up trust with their audience too
They didn’t even ask for your permission to use your video on their course or credit you????! Did you ever reach out to them? Curious how you found out.
Fight the pirates! Fight the pirates that be!
Nice 👍❤
I’m not a fan of online+ website locking even PDFs… I always download them to read offline. Would be better to personally watermark each pdf, assigned to the user. The customer should not have to be inconvenienced because of pirates!
Seriously excellent advice! I’m saving this video to watch again when I get ready to release my class in a couple years!
Good one
