SOCIETAL IMPACTS - QUE/ ANS

 

SOCIETAL IMPACTS

GRADE XII

Q1. Difference between Active and Passive Footprints

Active footprint is consciously created by individuals, while passive footprint is often unintentional or automatic.

Individuals have more control over their active footprint as they actively choose what to share, whereas passive footprint may be collected without their explicit consent or awareness.

Examples: Active footprint includes actions like posting on social media, while passive footprint includes data like browsing history or cookies.

 

Q2. Difference between free software and open source software

Definition: Free software emphasizes users' freedom to use, study, modify, and distribute software.

Definition: Open source software emphasizes the practical benefits of collaborative development, transparency, and peer review.

Free software emphasizes ethical principles and users' freedoms, while open source software focuses more on practical benefits of collaboration and transparency.

Free software often uses copyleft licenses to ensure freedom preservation, whereas open source software may use a variety of licenses, including permissive licenses.

Free software communities tend to prioritize freedom and social justice, while open source communities often focus on technical excellence and collaboration.

 

Q3. Difference between Copyright & Proprietary software.

Definition: Copyright is a legal concept that grants exclusive rights to authors and creators to control the use and distribution of their original works.

Definition: Proprietary software refers to software that is owned and controlled by a single entity or company, which retains exclusive rights over its use, distribution, and modification.

Copyright primarily concerns legal rights over creative works, while proprietary software refers to the ownership and control of software products.

Copyright establishes the creator's rights over their work, whereas proprietary software entails restrictions on users' rights based on licensing agreements.

Copyright applies to all original software code, whether open source or proprietary, while proprietary software is specifically owned and controlled by a single entity.

 

 

Q4. Difference between Permissive & Copyright License.

Permissive licenses grant users broad freedoms with minimal restrictions, while copyright licenses can vary widely in terms of the freedoms and obligations they impose.

Permissive licenses are specifically designed to maximize the freedom of users and developers, whereas copyright licenses encompass a broader range of permissions and restrictions.

Copyright licenses operate within the framework of copyright law, providing legal mechanisms for enforcing the rights and obligations associated with copyrighted works.

Q5. Difference between Copyrights and Patents

Definition: Copyright is a legal protection granted to creators of original works of authorship, such as literary works, artistic creations, music, and software.

Definition: A patent is a legal protection granted to inventors for new and useful inventions, processes, methods, or improvements thereof.

Copyright protects original works of authorship, while patents protect inventions or discoveries.

Copyright protects the expression of ideas, whereas patents protect the underlying ideas or concepts themselves.

Copyright protection lasts longer than patent protection, typically lasting for the author's lifetime plus additional years, while patents have a fixed term of usually 20 years.

Copyright protection is usually automatic upon creation, while patents require a formal application process and examination by a patent office.

Q6. Difference between Plagiarism and Copyright Infringement

Definition: Plagiarism involves the act of presenting someone else's ideas, words, or work as one's own without proper attribution or credit.

Definition: Copyright infringement occurs when someone violates the exclusive rights of a copyright holder by using, reproducing, distributing, or creating derivative works based on copyrighted material without permission.

Plagiarism focuses on the misrepresentation of authorship and academic integrity, while copyright infringement focuses on the unauthorized use or exploitation of copyrighted material.

Plagiarism primarily has academic and ethical consequences, while copyright infringement has legal consequences under intellectual property law.

Plagiarism is often associated with academic and creative contexts, whereas copyright infringement can occur in various commercial and non-commercial contexts.
