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.

GET IN TOUCH WITH A PROFESSIONAL CRYPTO ASSET RECOVERY SPECIALIST NEAR YOU.My encounter with DUNE NECTAR WEB EXPERT proved to be fortuitous. Just recent, I was encumbered by a challenging situation and financial challenges stemming from an unsuccessful cryptocurrency venture. The preceding months had been exceptionally difficult. I encountered an incident that nearly destroyed my business and eroded the confidence I had built with my business associates over a long while. I was a victim of cryptocurrency-related fraud. I not only lost my capital but also incurred substantial debt from my associates over several months, in an effort to ensure the success of this cryptocurrency investment; however, I was instead overwhelmed by debt. I was denied the opportunity to withdraw my funds or to terminate my involvement with this investment platform. I subsequently discovered DUNE NECTAR WEB EXPERT, a private investigative and cryptocurrency asset recovery specialist. I learned of their assistance to numerous victims of online fraudulent schemes and how they managed to recover their lost funds. I am profoundly grateful to DUNE NECTAR WEB EXPERT for their honesty and compassion throughout the process of assisting me in the successful recovery of my crypto and the profit I believed to have lost on this platform. I intend to publicly acknowledge the exceptional professionalism and organizational capabilities of DUNE NECTAR WEB EXPERT, a private investigative and cryptocurrency asset recovery specialist.

In the fast-paced world of crypto trading, trust is everything, and I learned that the hard way, Just a few months ago, I invested in what I believed was a legitimate crypto trading platform. The website was sleek, the support team responsive, and the profits seemed real. Lured by the promise of high returns, I deposited $150,000 worth of Ethereum into the platform. For a while, everything appeared normal. My dashboard showed growing profits then came the day I tried to withdraw a significant portion of my Ethereum. The platform froze. Customer service vanished. Emails bounced back. That’s when it hit me I had been scammed, after the initial shock wore off, I began researching recovery options. That’s when I came across Dexdert Net Pro, a digital asset recovery service with a growing reputation for reclaiming lost and stolen crypto. Skeptical but desperate, I reached out to them. From the very first consultation, Dexdert Net Pro handled my case with professionalism and urgency. They explained that recovery wouldn’t be easy, but not impossible. They deployed a forensic team specializing in blockchain analysis, and soon they began tracing the path of my stolen Ethereum across wallets, mixers, and shell accounts, Over the next few weeks, I received regular updates, transaction maps, exchange analysis, and ultimately a breakthrough. Dexdert Net Pro had not only identified the scammers’ cold wallets but also located a laundering process they were using to offload stolen assets. Dexdert Net Recovery successfully froze the assets. Shortly after, they recovered my $150,000 worth of Ethereum and securely transferred it back to my personal cold wallet. I couldn’t believe it. In an industry full of empty promises and heartache, Dexdert Net Pro delivered real results. They turned what felt like a devastating loss into a story of redemption. Today, I’m back in crypto but much wiser. If you’ve been scammed, don’t lose hope. Dexdert Net Pro Recovery proved that even in the wild west of crypto, justice is possible.
