“Embedded” Issues: Using Linked and Embedded Content from Social Media (POSTPONED)

When: April 25, 2022 at 1:00pm - 2:00pm EDT - This event has passed

ABOUT THE PROGRAM:  

Embedding social media content into other mediums—like articles or other platforms—is an increasingly popular way to share photographs and videos. Platforms like Instagram make embedding easy by building that function into their interfaces, but users shouldn’t be lulled into thinking that embedding doesn’t carry legal risks. Our expert panel will explore the rapidly evolving landscape of copyright risks associated with social media linking and embedding, including a review of several recent cases and best practices for both publishers and content owners.

 

SPEAKERS:
