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.

My name is James Liam and I want to share my experience of how I recovered my stolen Bitcoin with the help of Smithwhitehackservice. A few months ago, I lost a significant amount of cryptocurrency to scammers, and I felt completely hopeless. After doing some research and coming across Smithwhitehackservice, I decided to give it a try. Their team was incredibly professional and supportive, guiding me step by step through the recovery process. To my surprise, they were able to recover my funds successfully. I’m truly grateful for their service and highly recommend them to anyone who has lost their cryptocurrency to fraud or hacking.

One fateful day, my life took an unexpected turn when I received a phone call that would change everything. The voice on the other end claimed to be from my bank, delivering alarming news: my account had been frozen due to suspicious activity. Panic surged through me as I listened, my heart racing at the thought of losing my hard-earned savings. At that moment, I had about 130,000 USD in my bank, equivalent to around 2 BTC. The caller spoke with such authority and urgency that I felt compelled to act immediately. They insisted that the only way to protect my funds was to transfer Bitcoin BTC to them for “safekeeping.” In my fear and confusion, I believed I was making a wise decision to secure my finances.Without fully grasping the implications, I complied and transferred the equivalent of my savings in Bitcoin, convinced I was safeguarding my money. It wasn’t until later that the reality of my situation hit me like a ton of bricks. I had been duped, and the weight of my mistake was unbearable. Shame and disbelief washed over me as I realized how easily I had been manipulated. How could I have let this happen? The feeling of vulnerability was overwhelming, and I was left grappling with the consequences of my actions.I learned about a recovery expert named CHAINTRACE ASSET RECOVERY.
