"Under current Australian law it is still a breach of copyright to copy, reproduce or adapt copyright material for personal or private use without permission from the copyright owner." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright)
I doubt that there is a clear answer to the copyright question as it seems to be continually debated in the courts.
I have one question that seems to challenge the whole idea of copyright. If I copy a photograph that someone else put on Geni, and that photo was subject to copyright, where do I stand? It seems that in copying a copyrighted item to the web as a public item it becomes open slather.
