Tracy spoke with Daliah Saper, an intellectual property lawyer who also teaches Internet Law at the University of Illinois. In a rapid-fire conversation, Daliah outlined the biggest legal risks that you face when personally using social media. Questions Daliah answered include: * When you post a piece of content to a social network, what rights do you retain to that content? * If you’ve produced a creative work, such as an image or a song, how can you protect your ownership online? * What is “Fair Use” and can you reuse copyrighted content online? * If someone says something false about you online, what legal action can you take? * If you’ve insulted someone online, can you be sued? * If someone bullies you online, what legal action can you take? * If you are the victim of revenge porn, how can you get the images taken down? * Can you be fired if you do not obey your employer’s social media policy? * When you leave a company, can you take your social following with you? * How can you legally run a sweepstakes or contest online? * If you are accepting free things in exchange for posts on social media, what FCC regulations must you follow?
