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.

Please everyone should be careful and stop being fooled by all these brokers and account managers, they scammed me over $ 170,000 of my investment capital, they kept on requesting for extra funds before a withdrawal request can be accepted and processed, in the end, I lost all my money.

Elderly Widow Loses $195K to Sham Retirement Trust Scam… support@jetwebhackers.com
After my husband passed, I guarded our $195K life savings fiercely—for medical bills and leaving something for my grandchildren. ‘Michael’ contacted me online, a supposed financial advisor for widows, promising “safe” retirement trusts with charity ties and 15-20% monthly growth. I trusted his kind words. Sent it all. Watched it vanish. Sat alone clutching old wedding photos, tears falling—felt I’d failed everyone I loved. In the dark at 4 a.m., I reached JetWebHackers. They traced it swiftly, recovered every dollar in weeks. Funds returned… I held those photos again, sobbing with gratitude. They brought back my peace. If scammed, don’t despair—JetWebHackers are true lifesavers. Thank you forever!
