-Copyright means copyright protects the expression of ideas and information in material form that may be written and recorded as an image, video or sound. Copyright does not protect the ideas and information itself, but protects the realization of the ideas expressed in the form of works.

- Copyright is a legal right, giving you complete control over the work as the owner. Copyright provides protection against unauthorized use of your work. Copyright owners can use, sell, or license a work to third parties.

- Copyright usually protects the work created by the creator and the copyrighted work must be original or original. Copyright protects work material as books, journal articles, digital images, paintings, sculptures, photos, music, videos etc.

-Copyright also applies to unpublished material such as websites and computer programs. Authors and creators do not always own the copyright to their work. Copyright is valid for a certain duration. Copyright also allows people to use copyrighted material fairly for socially beneficial purposes, such as education and research.

that's a little description of copyright, hopefully with this first article it can trigger me to continue to develop and write on this platform, thank you.

You touch on two topics at the end that, should you chose to expand on this topic, are things you might expand upon:

Copyright is valid for a certain duration.

What happens when copyright expires, has been forfeited, is expressly waived, or might be inapplicable, and lapses into the public domain

Copyright also allows people to use copyrighted material fairly for socially beneficial purposes, such as education and research.

"Fair use": the legal doctrine promoting freedom of expression, permitting unlicensed use of copyright-protected works under certain circumstances.

Many people don't believe copyright has any implications on the Internet. I've seen my own articles copied verbatim and posted elsewhere; I guess people were having their read.cash articles reposted by others right here on read.cash! https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/different-versions-of-same-articles-in-readcash-e565568d
