CopyrightPlagiarism
Copyright is a legal protection for creators of original works like books, music, software, etc. It gives them exclusive rights to use, distribute, and profit from their work.Plagiarism is copying someone else's work and then passing it off as one's own.
Copyright infringement occurs when someone uses a copyrighted work without permission, potentially facing legal consequences.Plagiarism can be accidental/unintentional or deliberate/intentional. For work that is in the public domain or not protected by copyright, it can still be plagiarized if proper credit is not given.
