The rise of cloud technology hasrevolutionised the world
of creativity by opening various channels for creators to
distribute their work. The ease with which these works
can be accessed and distributed has opened up more
avenues by which information can be accessed, not only
legitimately, but also illegitimately.This article examines

comparison with that in the UK and the US.The rise of cloud technology hasrevolutionised the world
