I saw a thread on facebook tonight where a model was complaining about people stealing her pics. One person responded with the following comment and I'm wondering if any of you know what he's talking about....
" congress changed the copyright laws effective dec 1 2012 regarding public domain and internet publishing.. make sure you digimark all your meta data with copyright codecs.."

Digimarc is the only third-party plug-in that ships with Photoshop.
It embeds an invisible copyright notice in images that is difficult (but not impossible, I've heard) to remove.
Different membership levels are available to protect different images and provide various serivce. Professional level ($100/year) protects up to 2,000 images/year provides a web crawler that allows you to track all of the web pages where your marked images appear.
There is a proposal in front of Congress for some legislation related to Copyright. As far as I am aware, it has not been passed or signed into law by the President.

Clarification here -
Professional is $99/yr - that includes UP to 2000 images
Small Business is $499/yr - up to 5000 images
Enterprise (priced based on needs etc) - contact a sales rep with Digimarc

No changes to copyright, trademark or patent effective 01-DEC-2012. None. As one person noted, nothing done with this Congress at all.
"Digimark (sic) your meta data with copyright codecs?" There are no codecs for Digimarc. The meta data isn't what is copyrightable, it is the photo. Whoever replied is completely uniformed and providing bad information.
Accepting some punks proof that he is the dip in the IQ bell curve by yapping about copyright law from a photographer-model networking site makes as much sense as accepting probably that same punks cheap shot on a social media site where the relevance of what you had for lunch and when you went to the gym holds more weight than Oprahs toilet seat...... Just saying.
