In researching information and creating the Infographic for this assignment, I located numerous credible and valid website/page sources, but also found numerous ideas, terms, and quotes from our textbook, Create to Learn – Introduction to Digital Literacy, Renee Hobbs, Wiley/Blackwell, 2017; specifically from pages 118, 119, 150,167, and 200. The websites where information was gleaned are listed below.
In summary, Purchasers, Vendors, and Sellers should follow ethical guidelines and work together to rectify and avoid Deceptive Ads, Fraudulently obtained email lists, violations of intellectual properties, theft of logos, images, written content, audio & video recordings, copyright infringements of all types to include patens and trademarks, improper data mining and application of such, and contemporary propaganda (aka Fake News).
Instead they should work to use Fair Reasoning, preserve meaning of texts, give proper credit, reveal sources, be transparent, copyright works, seek advice from the Small Business Administration, seek good legal advice, define privileges, limitations, and rights that are transferable.
