Social Media Reminders for the New Year (Applies to personal and professional accounts)
There appears to be new litigation that is coming out almost daily about social media and what can be posted, tweeted, or retweeted. An area that individuals, companies, and organizations have been sued for are trademark infringement along with the stealing of another person’s ideas from personal or school accounts. People, organizations, and companies are also in trouble for even retweeting someone else’s post or tweet. The following is information about a recent court case. More than ever it is important to check sources and information versus just passing it along. We do not want an individual or the district to be in a compromising position. Please let me know if you have any questions.
