In the rapidly evolving digital landscape, the creation and dissemination of content have become more accessible than ever. From social media posts to streaming services, the internet has transformed how we share and consume creative works. However, this ease of access also brings significant challenges, particularly concerning the protection of original content. Copyright plays a crucial role in safeguarding the rights of creators, ensuring that their works are not exploited without permission. This article explores the importance of copyright in the digital age, focusing on the copyright ordinance 1962, the copyright act Pakistan, and the copyright registration process in Pakistan—topics on which Dinslaw provides expert guidance.
Understanding Copyright with Dinslaw
