"People can now use stuff without your permission," explained photo rights campaigner Paul Ellis. "To stop that you have to register your work in a registry - but registering stuff is an activity that costs you time and money. So what was your property by default will only remain yours if you take active steps, and absorb the costs, if it is formally registered to you as the owner."
And right now, Ellis says, there's only one registry, PLUS. Photographers, including David Bailey, condemned the government for rushing through the legislation before other registries - such as the Copyright Hub - could sort themselves out.
"The mass of the public will never realise they've been robbed," thinks Ellis. The radical free-our-information bureaucrats at the Intellectual Property Office had already attempted to smuggle orphan works rules through via the Digital Economy Act in 2010, but were rebuffed. Thanks to a Google-friendly Conservative-led administration, they've now triumphed.

The
Kent State Massacre May 4, 1970 – We will never forget! (May 4 is a
day to celebrate how the working class youth of this country - on the
campuses, in the workplace and in uniform – forever changed the world.
This year I am posting a semi-personal scrapbook of images as an
eyewitness to the massacre. Some of these
I have not posted before or used in slideshows - for a brief political
history of the massacres at Kent and Jackson, please see the link
below). The following is excerpted from INSURGENT IMAGES: The
Agitprop Murals of Mike Alewitz, by Paul Buhle: “...the May–June
Paris events of 1968, which brought students together with workers in a
common revolt, provided real inspiration to a young activist like
Alewitz. Likewise, while too many of the leaders of the campus New Left
barely read the back covers of current radical paperbacks before giving
effusive but garbled public speeches, the campus Marxists burned the
midnight oil reading and discussing theoretical works of all kinds.
The Socialist Workers Party formed the Student Mobilization Committee
(SMC) and its affiliate, the Kent Committee to End the War, with
widespread support from faculty liberals and community members outside
the SDS network. Alewitz, a leading light of the SWP’s youth-wing Young
Socialist Alliance, was an overnight SMC factotum, with a campus
newspaper column and a perpetual public presence... When the shootings
at Kent State rocked the nation, setting off a national campus strike
wave from coast to coast, activists were quick to form a Committee of
Kent State Massacre Eyewitnesses. As National Chair of this instant
organization, Alewitz left school behind to tour and get out the word.
He spoke at mass rallies in a number of cities and saw firsthand the
potential of the student movement as it strove to challenge the power of
those who ran the universities. He became part of the national student
strike’s broad leadership which sought to follow the French example of
the “red university,” with the campus seen as a base for reaching out
into blue-collar life. While on tour, he came to Austin Texas, where
he realized that he could get into the University of Texas—thus into a
very different political world—at a bargain-basement price. He left Ohio
behind with two boxes of worldly belongings to show for his past. He
was nineteen years old. The GI antiwar movement had now nearly
reached its peak, and army bases, from Fort Sam Houston to Kileen,
practically surrounded Austin. The October, 1970, Austin demonstration,
the largest in the country on that date (and chaired by Alewitz),
featured thousands of active duty GIs at the head of a parade of 20,000.
The radicals had reached the working class, or the working class had
reached the radicals. The faith of die-hard Marxists had finally borne
fruit, as the initial rejection of the GIs by the antiwar movement ended
and spirited efforts went to winning them over. Alewitz himself
regularly organized students to go onto the bases, and often went
himself until he was barred from them and even placed (with the rest of
the YSA) on the Attorney General’s list of subversives. Called up for a
pre-induction physical, he found himself forbidden from the very space
where the physical had been scheduled...” -- Paul Buhle Dedication

Congressional-style Citizen Hearing on Disclosure is taking public testimonies from international researchers and former members of the U.S. military on extra terrestrial encounters, at the National Press Club, April 29- May 3.
The aim of the week long hearing is to pressure the United States government to open its files on documented encounters with extraterrestrial life and UFOs.
