W7. Why Free Culture matters? - Cho ji won

1.Summary
3D printing is done through the STL file created by modeling. This STL file can be shared on the Internet. In other words, until now, only 'information' about an object has been shared. Anyone can print drawings with 3D printer.
 Since it is copying to tangible objects, it is now necessary to define copyright for 3D drawings. Since the object to be scanned is a work, the act of printing a 3D drawing using a 3D scanner corresponds to "reproduction" under copyright law. Therefore, without permission of the original author, the 3D scanner using the 3D scanner for the work or the sharing of the drawing on the Internet are all infringements of copyright.

 Because of this, intellectual property rights should more reliably regulate unauthorized reproduction of 3D drawings. This is because the drawings that the inventor has patented should be distributed to people without any value and should not be made commercially. I think it is necessary to have rules that can be regulated as much as it is easy to share, and I think that intellectual property should play a role.

2.Interesting point
It was interesting that information became important as technology and social development progressed. I think I already know how much information and the power of knowledge is in the place where information is freely shared by looking at Wikipedia. As information is more easily shared than ever before, information providers, those who create free culture, should have a sense of responsibility. You should always keep an eye on how many people can influence the information they write.

3.Discussion point
It seems that there is not much sanction against illegal copying and free culture yet. People are not aware of the dangers. Do you think current sanctions for free culture are appropriate? How do you think it is right to discipline illegal immigration?
