Artists upload their work to sites like Instagram and Etsy everyday. But many don't realize big brands and sneaky store owners are stealing their work and selling it for profit. Copyright law should protect these independent artists, but the system is set up in a way that makes it cheap and easy to sell stolen art work and difficult and expensive to get your stolen artwork removed.

And here's some great stories if you want to learn more about art theft online.

Great video. Sad people choose to steal original art pieces. I would rather be an original artist than a con artist that steals to make a profit.

Great video - love to see proponents for digital property rights. Exciting time to be in web3 and see creators and builders being compensated by the platforms they're helping to build.
