Maxaa la sameeyaa haddii qof uu koobiyo mareegahaaga ama waxa ku jira blog? Sidee looga warbixiyaa mareegaha xatooyada macluumaadka? Inteena badan waxaan nahay abuurayaal marka aan ku jirno internetka^(Internet) . Waxaan u maleyneynaa, oo aan ku dhejineynaa fikradahayaga mareegaha, golayaasha, blogyada iyo shabakadaha bulshada. Waxaan ka shaqeynaa maqaallada, casharrada, sida loo sameeyo iyo in ka badan! Isla marka aad fikradahaaga ama cilmi-baarista ku dhejiso internetka^(Internet) , waxay noqon doontaa hantidaada. Waxaad si toos ah u heleysaa xuquuqda daabacaadda alaabta - ha noqoto blog, e-book ama boggaaga internetka. Wadamo aad u tiro yar ayaa kaa doonaya inaad u diwaangeliso shaqadaada xuquuqda daabacaada iyo shaqo kasta oo aad adigu leedahay - digital ama warqad - ma isticmaali karto qof kale adiga oo aan ogolaansho qoraal ah haysan. Laakiin sida nolosha dhabta ah, waxaa jira dad ku jira internetka^(Internet)kuwaas oo si fudud u soo qaadan doona shaqadaada oo u daabici doona inay iyagu leeyihiin. Tan waxaa loo yaqaan Plagiarism .

Been Abuurka iyo Xatooyada Macluumaadka Onlineka ah

Muran ayaa soo ifbaxaya marka qofka - kii shaqadaada u qaaday si uu u isticmaalo meel kale - uu ku siinayo dib u xiriirinta shaqadaada, maahan ku xadgudubka xuquuqda daabacaada. Laakiin xaaladdu maaha.

Haddii qof uu isticmaalo mid ka mid ah shaqadaada - iyada oo aan loo eegin sida ay u yar tahay - mid kasta oo ka mid ah faa'iidooyinka shakhsi ahaaneed iyada oo aan loo eegin in uu ku siinayo sifaynta iyo in kale, waa ku xad-gudub xuquuqda daabacaadda ilaa qofkaas uu qoraal kaa haysto.

Fahamka Xuquuqda Daabacaada, Shatiyada iyo Calaamadaha Ganacsiga

Xeerka Hantida caqliga waxa uu^{(Intellectual Properties Act)} daboolayaa saddex meelood oo gaar ah:

1. Nuxurka nooc kasta ha ahaado: qoraal, farshaxan, cod, iyo muuqaal oo ay ku jiraan animations
2. Fikradaha iyo Hal-abuurka: Waxa ku jira hal-abuuro weli warqad ku yaal
3. Calaamadaha: Calaamadaha ganacsiga

Calaamadaha, waa inaad u diiwaan gelisaa inay yihiin calaamado ganacsi si aanay dadka kale ugu isticmaalin faa'iidadooda. Calaamadaha ganacsiga^(Trademarks) guud ahaan waxay khuseeyaan badeecadaha iyo adeegyada ka badan dabeecadda la taaban karo. Fikradaha iyo hal-abuurrada waxay u baahan yihiin in la sharciyeeyo, waana hanti uu leeyahay qofka diiwaan-geliyay. Halka ikhtiraacida (patents) iyo calaamadaha (calaamadaha ganacsiga), aad u baahan tahay xoogaa waraaqo ah, uma baahnid wax waraaqo ah oo aad ku codsanayso xuquuqaha wax kasta oo AAD abuurtay^{(While for inventions (patents) and symbols (trademarks), you need some paperwork, you do not need any paperwork for claiming rights to anything that YOU created)} . Marka shaqadaada la daabaco - iyadoon loo eegin haddii ay tahay warqad ama warbaahinta dhijitaalka ah - waxaad leedahay xuquuqda kaliya ee:

1. Isticmaal shaqada,
2. Allow dib u isticmaal
3. Allow kala soocida iyo
4. U oggolow^(Allow) kuwa kale inay faa'iido ka sameeyaan shaqadaada.

Haddii aad tahay qofka haysta xuquuqda daabacaada, waxa ay la macno tahay in adiga oo keliya^{(ONLY YOU)} laguu oggol yahay in aad nuqul ka samayso shaqada oo haddii aad rabto – kuwa kale iyo kuwa aad fasax qoraal ah siisid oo keliya ayaa isticmaali kara shaqada.

Internet Vs. Domain dadweyne

Waxaa la sheegay, in shaqooyinka laga heli karo Domain Dadweynaha^{(Public Domain)} la soo saari karo iyada oo aan oggolaansho cad laga helin abuuraha (xuquuqda xuquuqda daabacaada). Mar haddii qofku si sahal ah u geli karo wax kasta oo lagu soo dhejiyo internetka^(Internet) , iyada ama isaga ayaa laga yaabaa inay ku wareeraan Domain Dadweynaha^{(Public Domain)} . Arrintu sidaas maaha. Intarneetku maaha wax la mid ah Domain Dadweynaha^{(The Internet is not a synonym of Public Domain)} . Waa meel ay ka dhacaan xog-is-weydaarsi. Dadku waxay shaqooyinkooda gaarka ah galiyaan internetka^(Internet) . Maaddaama uu xeerka xuquuqda daabacan yahay uu sheegayo in abuurayaashu ay haystaan ​​xuquuqda daabacaadda shaqadooda oo lagu daabacay qaab dhijitaal ah, kuwa kalena xaq uma laha inay isticmaalaan iyada oo aan oggolaansho laga helin abuuraha.

Wadamada intooda badan waxay leeyihiin dhaqamo ay wadaagaan marka ay timaado xuquuqaha daabacaada. Sida ku cad dhaqankan caadiga ah, shaqo ayaa iska leh qaybta dadwaynaha marka loo eego saddex xaaladood:

1. Haystaha xuquuqda daabacaada ayaa ka tanaasula xuquuqdiisa daabacaada isagoo sheegay in kuwa kale ay si xor ah u isticmaali karaan
2. In ka badan 50 sano ayaa ka soo wareegtay markii uu dhintay qof haystay xuquuqda daabacaada
3. Haddii abuuruhu yahay hay'ad dawladeed (kuma khuseyso hababka aan dawliga ahayn)

Taas macneheedu waxa weeye in aad nuqul ka samayn karto Shakespeare intaad rabto cidna kuma dacwayn karto. Waxaa jira ilo badan oo Domains Public^{(Public Domains)} ah oo laga heli karo internetka^(Internet) . Tusaalooyinka Domains Public^{(Public Domains)} waa CreativeCommons.org iyo Wikipedia.org . Xitaa xaaladaha Domains Dadweynaha^{(Public Domains)} , waxaad u baahan tahay inaad aragto haddii abuuruhu doonayo inaad u nisbayso shaqada isaga / iyada. Tusaale ahaan, waxaad nuqul ka dhejin kartaa qoraalka Wikipedia , laakiin waa inaad sheegtaa magaca qoraaga Wiki iyo laga yaabee inuu dib ugu laabto maqaalkii asalka ahaa ee Wikipedia . Kaliya^(Just)eeg bogga hoose ee bogga si aad u aragto in shaqadu diyaar u tahay koobiyo iyo haddii ay haa tahay, shuruudaha ay shaqadu diyaar ugu tahay koobiyaynta.

Sida Loo Ilaaliyo Xogtaada Intarneedka

In kasta oo aanay qasab ahayn, waxaad isticmaali kartaa tillaabooyinka qaarkood si aad uga ilaaliso dadka inay koobiyeeyaan shaqadaada nooc kastaba ha ahaatee. Waa inaad hore u aragtay calaamadda daabacaadda: goobaab leh C iyo goobabbo uu ku leeyahay P. Labaduba waxay sheegaan in shaqada lagu ilaalinayo sharciga lahaanshaha iyo kuwa kale waa inay waydiiyaan qofka haysta xuquuq-daabacaad qoraal ah ka hor inta aan loo isticmaalin shaqada sida ay tahay ama asal ahaan. Calaamadaha noocan oo kale ah ayaa si joogto ah loogu dhejiyaa buug-jaldiyada, daboolka CD/DVD iyo xitaa mareegaha qaarkood.

Intarneedka^(Internet) , waxa aad diri kartaa calaamado xoogan si aad uga hortagto koobiyaynta adiga oo isticmaalaya banner ka mid ah copyscape.com ama dmca.com . Iyadoo laga yaabo in tani aanay si hubaal ah u shaqaynayn, haddana waxa laga yaabaa inay ugu yaraan ka celiso qaar, oo ay tusto inaad si dhab ah u qaadato xatooyada. Labada shirkadoodba waxay galayaan xatooyada internetka^(Internet) waxayna bixiyaan boorar lacag la'aan ah oo cabbirro kala duwan leh kuwaas oo soo jeedinaya in koobiyaynta waxa ku jira boggaas ay horseedi karto ku xadgudubka xuquuqda daabacaada. Haddii aad geliso banner iyo calaamadda xuquuqda daabacaadda oo ay ku qoran tahay magaca dadka haysta xuquuqda daabacaada iyo ciwaanka iimaylka ee cag-yaraha, waa inay ka soo muuqdaan dhammaan bogagga mareegahaaga. Xasuusnoow^(Remember) in calaamadda goobada ku leh P ay tahay in loo isticmaalo codka oo keliya maadaama ay tilmaamayso phonogram.

Kuwa kore, si kastaba ha ahaatee, ma dammaanad qaadayaan in dadku aysan xadin macluumaadkaaga internetka^(Internet) . Dad badan ayaa ku fekeraya inay ka bixi karaan. Waxay lahaayeen faa'iido waagii hore ee shabakada caalamiga ah^{(World Wide Web)} . Maadaama Internetku^(Internet) uu hadda yahay meel muhiim u ah xogta garaadka, gaar ahaan agabka xuquuqda daabacaada, waxaa jira ururo ka shaqeeya sirta iyo budhcad-badeednimada.

Keydso boggaaga si uu caddayn u noqdo in uu markii hore ka soo muuqday internetka .^{(Save your webpage as proof that it appeared first on the Internet.)}

Qaybtani waxay ka hadlaysaa waxa la samaynayo haddii macluumaadkaaga la xado.

Talaabooyinka La Qaado Haddi Waxaga Intarneedka^{(Online Content)} La Xado

1. La xidhiidh qoraaga^{(Contact the author)} , miiska caawinta ama mareegta PR. Inta badan, waxaa laga yaabaa inaysan ogeyn in qoraalka ama farshaxanka ama maqalka/fidiyaha boggooda uu yahay xad-gudubyo xuquuqda daabacaadda. Inta badan website-yada waxay leeyihiin qaybta nala soo xidhiidh^{(Contact Us)} oo ku siin doonta lambar telefoon iyo ciwaanka e-mailka. Sidoo kale dhowr faallooyin ku dheji blog-giisa, qoraallada ay khusayso. Gaar ahow^{(Be specific)} . Tilmaan nuxurka lagu muransan yahay, oo leh xiriiriyayaal tilmaamaya labadaba waxa ku jira. Sug^(Wait) dhowr maalmood si aad u aragto haddii ay kugula soo xiriiraan ama ay dejiyaan macluumaadkaaga sida aad u codsatay. Haddaysan ahayn, u gudub tallaabada labaad.
2. Samee raadinta WhoIs^{(WhoIs search)} si aad u raadiso ciwaanka, iimaylka ama telifoonka^{(look up the address, email or phone)} maamulayaasha mareegaha kuwaas oo marti galinaya macluumaadkaaga la koobiyay. La xidhiidh maamulayaasha tafaasiisha ku xad-gudubka xuquuqda daabacaadda oo u deji wakhti kama dambays ah oo ay ku dejinayaan waxa ku jira. Dhammaan waa in la siiyaa fursad cadaalad ah. Waxaa laga yaabaa inay tani u dhacday si badheedh ah ama si khalad ah. Sug^(Wait) ilaa wakhtiga kama dambaysta ahi ka dhacayo oo haddii maamulayaashu ku dhaqmi waayaan codsigaaga ah inay dejiyaan nuxurka la koobiyay, u gudub tallaabada saddexaad.
3. Isticmaal awoodda warbaahinta bulshada si aad ereyga u faafiso. Haddii uusan u ogolaan faallooyinka in ay ka muuqdaan boggiisa, markaa waxaad soo bandhigi kartaa wada hadalka meel bannaan. Milkiilaha goobta ayaa laga yaabaa inuu isku dayo inuu qaldamo isagoo leh inuusan ka warqabin ama ay tahay mid ka mid ah qorayaashiisa oo sameynaya. Haddii ay tahay kaliya 1 ama 2 kiis, waxaad siin kartaa faa'iidada shakiga. Laakin haddii uu u muuqdo inuu yahay dembiilayaal soo noqnoqda ama mid caadaystay, iyo haddii uu diido inuu hoos u dhigo waxa ku jira, waxa laga yaabaa inaad u gudubto tallaabada xigta. ^{(The site owner may try to wriggle out by saying that he was not aware or that it was one of his authors doing it. If it’s just 1 or 2 cases, you may give him the benefit of doubt. But if he appears to be a repeat offender or a habitual one, and if he refuses to take down the content, you may have to proceed to the next step. )}Laakin iska hubi xaqiiqadaada iyo mowqifkaaga ka hor inta aadan qaadin tillaabooyinka sharciga ah ee soo socda.

How to deal with Plagiarism and Online Content Theft

What to do if someоne copies your website оr blog content? How to repоrt a website for stealing content? Most of us are creators when on the Internet. We think, and wе рost our thoughts on wеbsites, forums, blogs and social networking sites. We work on articles, tutorials, how-to’ѕ and more! As soon as you pоst your thoughts or reѕearch to the Internet, it becomes your property. You аutomatіcally get the copyright to the material – be it a blog, an e-book or your webpage. Very few countries require you to register your work for сopyright and any work of you – digital or on paper – cannot be used by anyone else without yoυr written permissiоn. But like in real life, there are people on the Internet who will simply pick up your work and publish it as theіr own. Τhis is known as Plagiarism.

Plagiarism and Online Content Theft

An argument arises that when the person – who picked up your work to use it elsewhere – is giving a backlink to your work, it is not copyright infringement. But it is not the case.

If any person uses any of your work – no matter how small it is – for any of his/her personal benefits irrespective of whether or not he gives you the attribution, it is copyright infringement unless that person has written permission from you.

Understanding Copyrights, Patents And Trademarks

The Intellectual Properties Act covers three specific areas:

1. Content in any form: text, artwork, sound, and video including animations
2. Ideas and Inventions: Includes inventions that are still on paper
3. Symbols: Business trademarks

For symbols, you have to get them registered as trademarks so that others cannot use them for their profit. Trademarks generally apply to products and services that are more of a tangible nature. Ideas and inventions need to be patented, and they are the property of the person who gets them registered. While for inventions (patents) and symbols (trademarks), you need some paperwork, you do not need any paperwork for claiming rights to anything that YOU created. Once your work is published – irrespective of whether on paper or digital media – you own the sole rights to:

1. Use the work,
2. Allow reuse,
3. Allow derivatives and
4. Allow others to make profits out of your work.

If you are the copyright holder, it means that ONLY YOU are allowed to make copies of the work and should you wish – others and only the ones to whom you give written permission can use the work.

Internet Vs. Public Domain

It has been stated, that the works available in Public Domain can be reproduced without the explicit consent of the creator (copyright holder). Since one can easily access anything posted to the Internet, she or he may confuse it with Public Domain. This is not the case. The Internet is not a synonym of Public Domain. It is a place where an exchange of information happens. People upload their exclusive works to the Internet. Since the copyright act says that creators hold the copyright to their work published in digital form, others do not have the right to use it without the creator’s permission.

Most of the countries have common practices when it comes to copyrights. Under this common practice, a work belongs to the public domain under three cases:

1. The copyright holder gives up his/her copyright by stating that others can use it freely
2. More than 50 years have passed since the death of copyright holder
3. If the creator is government agency (not applicable to non-public processes)

This means that you can copy as much Shakespeare as you want and no one can sue you for it. There are many Public Domains resources available on the Internet. Examples of Public Domains are CreativeCommons.org and Wikipedia.org. Even in cases of Public Domains, you need to see if the creator wants you to attribute the work to him/her. For example, you can copy-paste text from Wikipedia, but you will have to mention the Wiki author’s name and maybe a backlink to the original article on Wikipedia. Just check out the bottom of the pages to see if the work is available for copy and if yes, the conditions on which the work is available for copying.

How To Protect Your Online Content

Though not mandatory, you can use some steps to prevent people from copying your work in any form. You must have already seen the copyright symbol: a circle with C in it and a circle with P in it. Both convey that the work is protected by copyright act and others should ask the copyright holder for written permission before using the work as it is or as a derivative. Such symbols are regular on book-covers, CD/DVD covers and even on some websites.

On the Internet, you can send out strong signals to deter copying by using a banner from either copyscape.com or dmca.com. While this may not work for sure, it may at least deter some, and show that you take plagiarism seriously. Both companies are into detection of plagiarism on the Internet and provide free banners of different sizes that suggest that copying the contents of that web page may lead to copyright infringement. If you put the banner and the copyright symbol with copyright holders’ name and email address in the footer, it should appear on all the pages of your website. Remember that the symbol with P in a circle should be used only for audio as it denotes phonogram.

The above, however, does not guarantee that people will not steal your content on the Internet. Many people do it thinking that they can get away with it. They had the advantage in the early days of the World Wide Web. Since the Internet is now an important place for intellectual data, especially copyrighted material, there are organizations that deal with plagiarism and piracy.

Save your webpage as proof that it appeared first on the Internet.

This section talks about what to do if your content is stolen.

Steps To Take If Your Online Content Is Stolen

1. Contact the author, helpdesk or website PR. Most probably, they may not know that the piece of writing or art or audio/video on their site is copyright infringement. Most websites have a Contact Us section that will provide you with a telephone number and e-mail address. Also post a few comments on his blog, in the concerned posts. Be specific. Point to the disputed content, with links pointing to both the contents. Wait for a couple of days to see if they contact you or take down your content as you may have requested. If not, proceed to step two.
2. Run a WhoIs search to look up the address, email or phone of the website administrators who are hosting your copied content. Contact the administrators with details of copyright infringement and set them a deadline for taking down the content. All must be given a fair chance. Maybe this has happened inadvertently or by mistake. Wait till the deadline expires and if the admins did not act on your request to take down the copied content, proceed to step three.
3. Use the power of social media to spread the word. If he does not allow comments to appear on his sites, then you can bring the conversation out in the open. The site owner may try to wriggle out by saying that he was not aware or that it was one of his authors doing it. If it’s just 1 or 2 cases, you may give him the benefit of doubt. But if he appears to be a repeat offender or a habitual one, and if he refuses to take down the content, you may have to proceed to the next step. But be sure of your facts and your standing before you take the next legal steps.
   
4. At this point, you can file a complaint under DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) with search engines like Google. The Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DMCA) is a law put in place by the United States of America, in order to crack down on the piracy of online media, software and other intellectual property. Learn more on this at Google Help.

Report Copyright Infringement With Google

Being one of the largest search providers, Google allows you to file complaints in case you know someone is involved in copyright infringement. You can also file a complaint even if you are not the owner of original content. It also provides for you to make a case if someone sends you a takedown notice and you believe that the content in question is your property.

For content related to text and artwork, you check out the Cease and Desist Questionnaire of Google that will walk you through some steps to collect information related to original and copied content. Here is the direct link to file the DMCA request. You will then be able to see your Removal Requests in your DMCA Dashboard here.

Checking the Web Search option will ensure that the stolen content is removed from Google’s search results. Alternatively, checking the AdSense option will mean that the content thief is making money from your stolen content, and this can even result in his AdSense account being disabled. This works fast, as Google is quite serious about these things. You can also write to [email protected] stating that he is making money from content stolen from you.

For content related to YouTube, you need to check out the YouTube Content Owners Page that offers you options to use a single takedown, multiple takedowns and to make money out of the copyrighted videos.

Report Copyright Infringement to Bing, Yahoo, AOL

In case you are interested in getting the pirated content removed from other search engines’ database also, you may use the following links:

1. Report Copyright Infringement With AOL
2. Report Copyright Infringement With Yahoo
3. Report Copyright Infringement With Bing. You can also use this form to report content concerns to Bing.

ChillingEffects.org

All the above, including Google, may send a copy of your takedown request to ChillingEffects.org. ChillingEffects is an information portal of cease-and-desist or DMCA takedown notices, submitted by individuals who send or receive them. ChillingEffects.org serves as a database for checking out different Cease and Desist claims that have been processed by Google and other Internet companies. It also stores data about takedowns claimed by individuals. At ChillingEffects.org, you will find good information on how to deal with people involved in copyright infringement.

You may want to enter your takedown request with ChillingEffects.org so that it is visible to everyone who is willing to study copyright issues. Your takedown requests can help law students and paralegals in dealing with cases related to copyright. Your contribution to this organization may help in framing copyright laws for the future.

This explains what to do if your content is stolen.

Plagiarism Checker

We also recommend you to keep on checking the Internet for websites that may be hosting your content without your permission, using your favorite search engine or even Google Alerts. To check for pirated content, you may use strings from your articles as keywords in different search engines.

Plagramme Plagiarism Checker is a feature-rich free multilingual software that lets you check Content Copying & Duplication.

You may also subscribe with CopyScape or register with DMCA.com to avail of tools that help in detecting piracy. These are private organizations that offer some free services and also some paid options.
