Plagiarism

We were also talking about Plagiarism in todays lesson as well. This made me think about an article I read in Style Magazine in thursday at work.

Alexandra McQueen, Saks Fifth Avenue and online shoe emporium Zappos; has been sued by Hells Angels (the Motorcycle Club) for using their skull head symbol without Hells Angels permission. This shows a case of copyright infringement and shows that you have to be careful about using other peoples work or identity without permission.
The case was in Hells Angels favour and has ruled that all merchandise with the motorcycle club's trademark must be recalled and destroyed.
