19. Plagiarism

means that people can use copyright material without
permission for the person who owns the copyright.

private use, research for school or even song
clips, review, news reporting, making a parody or for
education.
If it falls under these exemptions then six factors
must be noted. One is it has a purpose, two is what
was done with the work during and after use, three is
the amount of the material used as passed
around, four is if there are any alternatives or how
important was it to use this particular piece, five if
the material was published or not, and six, if the
value of the material will be harmed.
