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.

Ferit Hanim

My name is Ferit, a single mother from Ankara, Turkey. Life was tough, raising my two kids alone, working long hours. I saved every lira, hoping for a better future. Then, I heard about crypto trading, Bitcoin, big profits, a way out. A website that promised high returns, looked so real. I invested 150,000 liras, my life savings. At first, my account showed gains. I was excited. But when I tried to withdraw, nothing. The site went dark. No replies. My money was gone. I felt broken, betrayed. How would I feed my children? Desperate, I searched online for help. On a crypto forum, I found stories about Alpha Spy Nest, a team recovering lost funds. I was skeptical but had no choice. I emailed them, sharing everything, transaction IDs, the fake platform’s details. They replied fast, professional, asking for more info. I sent screenshots, wallet addresses, everything I had. Alpha Spy Nest got to work. They explained they’d use blockchain tools to trace my money. I didn’t understand it all, but they were patient, updating me often. They found my liras converted to Bitcoin, moved through secret wallets by scammers. It was a maze, but they followed the trail. They worked with experts, even law enforcement, to track the funds to an exchange. I couldn’t believe their skill. Weeks later, a message: Check your wallet. My hands shook. There it was 135,000 liras back. Not all, but most. I cried, hugging my kids. Alpha Spy Nest didn’t just return my money; they gave me hope. They taught me to check platforms, use secure wallets, and avoid scams. I’m careful now, but I’ll never forget how they fought for me. In Ankara, where scams are rising, they were my heroes. If found in the same situation, i’d advise you reach out to them via: email: alphaspynest@mail.com, website: www.alphaspynest.org, whatsapp: ‪+15132924878‬, telegram: https://t.me/Alphaspynest

$400,000 Gone Overnight… Until Boombavest Stepped In (Perth)

Our firm learned the hard way how unforgiving the digital world can be. We manage a small investment company, and one phishing email changed everything. With one wrong click, our business wallet was drained of $120,000. Overnight, we went from operating normally to facing chaos , furious investors, the threat of lawsuits, and the sinking feeling that we had failed the very people who trusted us with their money.

We tried everything we could think of. Our in-house team attempted to trace the blockchain transactions. We even hired an outside consultant who specialized in crypto forensics. But no matter how many hours we put in, the trail eventually went cold. Each dead end made the situation feel more hopeless, and the pressure kept mounting.

That’s when we came across a group called Boombavest. From the very first conversation, they treated us less like “clients” and more like partners in a joint mission. They were transparent about their process, careful in setting expectations, and clear about what was possible versus what wasn’t.

Over the following days, they conducted a deep forensic investigation. They traced the stolen funds across multiple wallets, identified the laundering exchange, and built a comprehensive report that we were able to pass directly to our legal team. The professionalism and clarity of their documentation alone gave us leverage we hadn’t had before.

And then came the breakthrough: within a short window, Boombavest was able to help us recover nearly 70% of the stolen funds. It wasn’t everything, but it was enough to stabilize our firm, reassure our investors, and prove that we were committed to protecting their interests no matter what.

The financial recovery mattered, but what mattered even more was the restoration of trust. Our investors saw that we weren’t giving up, and that we were willing to pursue every possible avenue to make things right. Boombavest didn’t just help us recoup money, they helped us preserve our credibility and keep our business alive.
