Using social networks legally: copyright

You use the information you find on the Internet to inform your colleagues and customers. Web 2.0 tools, whether free or not, offer fabulous possibilities for dissemination. But is it legal? What are the legal risks?

Twittering information, liking it on a Facebook wall, or using the resources of Wikipedia, images on Flickr or Picasa, or curation tools such as Scoop.it or Paper.li to propel them onto your company's social networks or those open to the whole world... these new ways of approaching information and disseminating it can very quickly run up against the classic rules of copyright.

Scoop.it and Pinterest, two social web tools, will be used here to draw up a picture of the legal risks and propose a series of recommendations.
