Copyright for something means that the ownership belongs of that something belongs to someone. When we say this thing is not copyright, it means that this things is being used without the prior permission of its owner. These days, world over people tend to copyright their work. Much appreciation to the authorities that protect people’s work from illegal use. But the problem lies in the implementation of these copyright rules.
Unfortunately, law enforcement agencies are not doing much to protect the rights of copyright property owners. As the laws are there, unfortunately there are no checks and balances. Talking about media, there are channels that air content which are not obtained from a genuine source. Many cable operators are using unlicensed pirated content. Not only movies are a part but so much so that a few cable operators are airing National Geographic content download illegally from the internet.
What is required is that we need to set up a separate committee including the Law Enforcement Agency personnel and judicial panel that keeps a check on the people using pirated material. The result of this will eventually be the protection of the rights of owners and deliver confidence into the market.
