Fighting Piracy
Our goal for this blog:
1. To be a resource for digital designers who need help fighting piracy
2. To be a resource for digital scrappers who need to understand what piracy is and how to avoid taking part in it.
A quick definition of piracy:
Piracy is the theft, reproduction, or redistribution of a copyrighted work without the permission or knowledge of the creator/copyright holder. YES, redistributing something you got for free is still piracy. If you didn't create it, DON'T redistribute it! Click here for why.

Please Note:
This isn't a regularly updated blog. Really, it's a compilation of information -- a static content resource. When the need arises, I will post new information here . . . but on the whole, the basic message of the blog has been spelled out in previous entries. I'm always open to e-mails suggesting new content or letting me know if a link is broken; please don't hesistate to contact me! ~ jen
Great blog. Piracy has been an ongoing problem in the needlework industry and several years ago a group of volunteers prepared some information for designers. A copy can be found at http://www.skinnersisters.com/copyright
My statement to a House Judiciary Subcommittee on the issues of piracy in the needlework industry can be found at http://www.skinnersisters.com/statement
Piracy is a nasty, dirty habit and nice needleworkers and scrappers don't pirate other folks' work.

Hi, Jen and Meredith.
Congratulations on the blog. I believe it's a reference when it comes to piracy on digiscrapping.
I would like to mention that I have translated a couple of posts to Portuguese to educate Brazilian scrappers on a community (Digiscrappers Brasil).
I would also like to post the translations on the scrap blog I have with 5 other friends (blogscrap.blogspot.com)
Hope you guys don't mind my translations. I think it's very important that we educate all scrappers around the world, and for those who don't read English, I think we should go for translations, right?
