Overview

Copyrighted works in the form of images, texts, videos and musical works, among others, are being uploaded by social media users and shared amongst one another. Victoria-Sophie Stracke deals with the question as to which options certain social media make available to their users and whether, due to said options, the right of communication to the public goes in compliance with Section 15 (2) of the German Act on Copyright and Related Rights (UrhG). In studying users' actions, she carefully considers case law of the European Court of Justice on the author's right of communication to the public under Article 3 (1) of the Information Society Directive. In addition, the author also examines the limits governing users whilst investigating what responsibility social media operators hold for infringements by their users.
