One of the biggest worries for an artist is to protect its artworks. Fears about plagiarism aren’t exactly unfounded: there have been many famous cases of plagiarism and plenty more have been alleged. Even when plagiarism is completely unintentional, it can be massively expensive and complicated to sort out. Patamus offers an artworks register and protection system reliable, instantaneous, legally valid, and free, accessible through our internet platform.
Plagiarism is a serious problem – so serious that artists are afraid of putting their work online for fear of being ripped off. Some artists get so worried about this that they avoid distributing their work at all, missing great opportunities, too. It’s a shame: if people keep their songs in a dusty cupboard for fear of losing them, it’s bad for all of us.
Protecting your work used to be difficult and complicated, and many artists are still doing it in ways that are unnecessarily expensive or that don’t offer them the security they need. With Patamu it became very easy!
When you register with Patamu you can instantly start protecting your work in a way that is completely reliable and completely free. You just have to fill in your personal details, then upload the file containing your song or artwork. The system will generate a zip file containing your declaration of authorship and the song, which is stamped with a legally valid and unbreakable cryptographic timestamp. When this is done, you can download the zip file and the timestamp file, as they prove you wrote the song – provided that nobody protected the same song before you!
Protecting your songs this way means you’re now free to distribute your song on the web without anyone else claiming it as their own – so get going!
