Question

Pinterest is at the forefront of a movement toward a more visual social media experience. It illustrates many of the trends that will be impacting e-commerce over the next few years, including the growing use of social media to sell goods (social e-commerce), for branding, and to drive traffic to company websites, as well as the growing importance of the mobile platform. Discuss why copyright infringement is a potential issue for Pinterest.

Answer 1

Answer:---

Copyright infringement is a potential issue for Pinterest because the users post pictures from other people without any kind of permit. This is causing Pinterest some problems, furthermore, they are having similar issues with videos posted from online video sources. Sometimes pins have to be deleted because they belong to someone who didn’t want them use publicly. I’ve had this happen with a couple pins on my page, they simply delete the pins and nothing else happens so I don’t think it’s a huge deal. Most of the pins are put online to be used and shared by everyone
