| Re: Web pics and copyright? A few years ago someone was selling a digital signature that was rumored to be traceable and they were talking about searching the net so they could cut down on misuse. I am not if this ever happened?
Has someone considering contacting RSA for an encrypted elements within the photo that would not allow the picture to be copied? Watermark across the image is great.
I agree with Duncan about it being a cultural issue. We have clients in the theater and we never send anything that is detailed in the manner of drawings and we always skew the scale of the drawings. All machinery is marked and seal chemical used on particular points. You break it we know.
The maker of Cray supercomputer had the same problem with his chip design work in Japan. He allowed a Japanese company to build some prototype chipsets for him and he saw the same exact chipset being sold (with his logo) at a chip conference the next year. As a result he opened a business in chip production (microlithography) for his prototype work.
Interesting topic- the perseption of value and ownership.
