Yo-tube and copyright… but what about TM sharing..?
The Viacom-Google fight over copyrights makes one wonder about the issue of copyrights in Web 2.0 kind of TM tools that share TMs. Ligotek, for example, provides users the option to use their TMs privately. However, when testing the software I didn’t see an option to create a private index. I am not sure if that necessarily means that the index will be public, but it makes me think what TMs I can actually use without infringing on NDAs that I signed or - without infringing on copyrights.
The jury is out on that one, and it is certainly an interesting one, because it is anything but clearcut (considering that by default in some jurisdictions the translator holds the copyright for the translation unless otherwise stipulated).
