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.

🌟 Client Testimonial: How Morphohack Cyber Service Helped Me Recover My Lost Crypto 🌟

A few months ago, I was scammed and lost access to my crypto wallet, along with a significant amount of cryptocurrency. The emotional toll was crushing, I felt helpless and devastated. After contacting the platform and authorities with no luck, I was stuck.
Then I found Morphohack Cyber Service, a company specializing in crypto recovery. Initially, I was skeptical, but I decided to give them a chance. From the start, their team impressed me with professionalism, transparency, and their deep knowledge of blockchain recovery. They carefully reviewed my case, explained each step of the process, and worked tirelessly to trace the stolen funds.
To my surprise, they succeeded. I recovered my assets and regained control of my wallet. What stood out most was their honesty and commitment, they didn’t promise miracles but delivered results. Throughout the process, they kept me informed and treated me with empathy and respect.
Thanks to Morphohack, I got my crypto back and my peace of mind. If you’ve been a victim of a crypto scam, I highly recommend reaching out to them. They gave me hope when I had none and made my recovery possible.

I was lucky enough to do my research and found out I have been coined of $835,000 worth of Bitcoin & Ethereum after falling victim but it was not long after I discovered the services of SMITH WHITE HACK SERVICE, who took some information from me to investigate and recover all the money that I lost in this scam.
