Why does Australia refuse to protect their designers?
Australia’s flawed intellectual property laws
So why does Australia provide Copyright laws and Intellectual property rights to artists and creative industries such as fine art, graphic design & photography yet leave product designers open to be copied?
Under the current IP laws unlike works referred to as fine art, design of objects and furniture is not entitled to copyright protection and are left vulnerable to copying. I have been one of many designers targeted by large companies ready to make money from unprotected designers here in Australia.
Australia’s retail landscape may play a major part in the decision to keep designers unprotected. Much of our retail in Australia is made up of replica’s. Stores like Kmart, Target, Freedom, Bunnings and Matt Blatt.
All these retailers hold an arsenal of replica rip-offs on their showroom floor so making it illegal will put these businesses in trouble. In fact, one of the biggest culprits is Westfarmers the conglomerate owning many of the offending companies employing 223,000 workers with a revenue of $68.44 Billion (2017) it’s no wonder the cries of the small Australian designers aren’t being heard. With figures like this creating change which will affect many of these company’s bottom dollar just adds to the friction in the uphill battle the Australia design industry faces.

USDT & ETHEREUM RECOVERY EXPERT-HIRE DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY
I was relocating from Colorado to Massachusetts for a promising job opportunity and needed a long-term rental to settle into a stable routine. I began searching through Airbnb for fully furnished apartments that would be comfortable and professional enough for someone starting a new chapter in a new city. After hours of browsing I found a stunning listing in Cambridge that seemed absolutely perfect. It was in a peaceful neighborhood close to my new office and offered everything I needed for a three-month stay. I reached out to the host directly to discuss the arrangement. Since I frequently use crypto for my major transactions I asked if they would accept payment in USDT. The host responded positively and claimed they had recently started taking crypto for extended bookings. We finalized an agreement for $120000 covering the full three-month rental period. Confident in the process I transferred the funds and sent the transaction screenshot along with what appeared to be a valid smart contract hash. Everything seemed secure and professional. But the very next day I received a message saying the payment had not arrived. I double checked the wallet address I had used and confirmed it matched what was provided. I assumed it might be a minor network delay. Soon after communication from the host went completely silent. My messages were ignored and the reality hit me hard. I had been deceived by someone posing as a legitimate host using a fabricated identity and a spoofed payment address. The smart contract hash was fake and the funds were lost. I felt completely shattered. That $120,000 was my full relocation budget and essential for my new start. In desperation I confided in a friend who lives in London. He told me about a firm called Digital Tech Guard Recovery that specializes in blockchain fraud investigations. I contacted them immediately and their response was swift and professional. Their team investigated the fake smart contract and traced the wallet address. It turned out the same scammer had been involved in rental fraud schemes across Illinois Georgia and Washington. Their operation was far-reaching and deliberately targeted renters making long-term crypto payments. Amazingly just two days later Digital Tech Guard Recovery called me. They had successfully recovered the full $120,000. I was stunned with relief and gratitude as I watched the funds reappear in my wallet. Thanks to Digital Tech Guard Recovery I was finally able to move and secure a place to stay. you can reach out to them on WhatsApp: +1 (443) 859 – 2886
