Who Owns Weblog Content?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Thursday February 3, 2005 @05:39AM from the something-to-think-about dept.

dirvish writes "Information Week has a story discussing copyright issues and legal rights associated with employee blogs and RSS readers. Recently, some companies have come out with formal weblog policies and others have fired employees for inappropriate blogging. With an increase in official company blogs, and some large companies like Microsoft and Google offering popular blogging services, the issues become even more clouded. Some bloggers are beginning to speak out about corporate and government control, others would probably prefer to not risk their jobs."

Sorry, when did corporations become the Thought Police? I must have been asleep while that happened.

It seems to me that whatever you do in your free time is none of the company's business. As long as it's not work related ofcourse.
