Introduction
Here at mission control we are dealing with a potential crisis. It seems that a lot of artwork, literature, and music by our most creative authors, musicians, and artists have fallen into the hands of pirates. Our artists can no longer support themselves nor feel safe in creating new work. Their work is being shared all over the Internet as we speak. We need to put a stop to this. What would happen if your favorite musicians stopped writing and publishing their music? Do you want to listen to the music of your grandparents! That's where this assignment comes in.
Your mission here is to find out what we can do to make sure creative work remains under proper control. You will investigate the laws of copyright and report your findings back to your SSI Chief. You will also need to find out if there is a way to legitimately use the work done by others so that you are not accused of operating illegally. Your assignment includes spreading the word so that others know the rules. When you have made a creative work of your own, you will learn of a way to protect that work so that you will be assured you are given proper credit for a job well done. Speaking of a job well done, agent, if you can successfully complete these quests you will earn your Agent Enforcer Badge.
