What Items Cannot be Protected by a Copyright?
When we think of a copyright, we normally think of books, movies, plays, songs, photographs, and similar items. But equally important is to ask what items cannot be copyrighted. Items such as personal names, business names, domain names, titles, slogans, short phrases such as recipes, blank forms, formulas, and general ideas can not receive copyright protection. If you have more questions, I suggest consulting with an experienced copyright attorney.
