Remarques
modifierIl serait important d'intégrer plus de précisions sur les problèmes de droit d'auteur posés par la licence Deviant, telles que détaillées dans la version anglaise infra. Le texte français n'en dit rien et semble dire que les droits de Deviant se limitent à l'affichage, ce qui est incorrect (cf. infra). Le texte anglais est plus précis et plus nuancé, présentant les arguments des 2 camps.
Version anglaise
modifierCopyright issues Historically there has been sporadic unease regarding deviantART's potential usage of uploaded art. Posting requires assent to dA's Submission Agreement, which grants deviantART the legal permissions to re-use and even modify any artwork posted on deviantART (see in particular Section 3. License), as well as the right to sublicense any of that artwork to a third party at dA's sole discretion.
Critics have argued that those usage rights are too broad and far-reaching, that the legal language is unnecessarily complex and weighed in dA's favor, and that the difficulty of terminating the agreement means that "dA effectively owns your art." Defenders assert that deviantART needs the rights to legally offer its basic services, and to enable future services and business relationships that may become desirable. (See also the official Help Desk response to questions and criticism.)
On March 1, 2006, deviantART's administration issued the most dramatic revision to date in response to months of community initiative. The far-reaching usage rights remain intact, but matters of termination have been clarified, improved, and made more accessible, so that artists can reclaim their usage rights simply by removing their works from dA as they please. Though some remain concerned about the basic arrangement, many now feel reassured by the new "freedom to leave."
Outside the legal issues involved in posting art, the immense popularity of the site has made it an easy target for copyright violation, as a malicious user can easily reuse artwork displayed (usually as clip art for websites) without the author's knowledge. Also, many users either ignorant of the site's purpose or the site's submission agreement often submit art works they did not produce. Others attempt to use deviantART as a photo-hosting site for their own needs, which is also strongly discouraged.
Due to the impractical nature of researching the copyright status of any art work reused in deviations, many copyright violations remain untouched until the violation has been proven. Administrative work regarding policy violations is often viewed as one-sided and unconcerned; this is because some users are not aware of the copyright policies, and claim to be falsely or mistakenly accused. This has led to many clashes between users and staff. - lyhana8 (Talk) - 30 avril 2006 à 16:42 (CEST)

modifierJe supprime les "et/ou" de cet article, je rappelle que le "ou" est inclusif et que "et/ou" est donc un pléonasme (le ou exclusif est "soit ... soit") DeadLugosi (d) 22 décembre 2007 à 11:43 (CET)
