Copyright , Plagiarism, and Fair Use

Fundamentally, copyright is a law that gives you ownership over the things you create.

Plagiarism is the act of taking another person's writing, conversation, song, or even idea and passing it off as your own.

a fair use is any copying of copyrighted material done for a limited and “transformative” purpose, such as to comment upon, criticize, or parody a copyrighted work.
