Is there any Copyright protection on Sololearn if their members put their idea in "Code Playground"?

Question

For example:
1. Emma's Paint Project
https://code.sololearn.com/W6d0E0j5wCMB/#

and

2. Amazing Muliticolor Fireworks
https://code.sololearn.com/Wb9AzlVxfsBN/#

Answer 2

Wah itu ide yang bagus.

Saya sebenarnya berharap agar pihak Sololearn membuat sebuah halaman khusus tentang peraturan yang lebih akomodatif terhadap aspirasi komunitas di Applikasi ini, bukan di web. karena sebagian besar menggunakan applikasi versi android.

Saya juga merasa kalau kebebasan di Sololearn tidak terkontrol karena kurangnya tata aturan yang dapat mengakomodasi berbagai kelemahan di Applikasi ini.

Saya akan menyampaikan usulan anda ke pihak Sololearn, tapi sabar ya karena balasannya lama.

@Kak Agus:

penjelasan jawaban2 di link tsb masih sedikit kurang sesuai ekspektasi yg saya inginkan, hehe...

Permasalahannya ini kan seperti di github, ekpekstasi jawaban yg saya inginkan lebih difokuskan tentang license,
https://www.quora.com/What-if-I-dont-include-a-license-in-my-public-GitHub-project-Can-people-do-anything-with-my-code

Cuma masih kurang begitu paham tentang license,

Cenderung penasaran apa peran SoloLearn bila ada plagiasi sourcecode lalu disebar2kan oleh orang lain, apakah dia sebagai saksi di pengadilan atau diurus pihak2 lainnya. entah gmana saya kurang paham jalannya hukum kalau andaikan dibawa serius.

Kalau di github mereka jelas detil membahas tentang perlindungan hak cipta di "GitHub Terms of Service", jauh lebih panjang dari "Terms of Use"-nya SoloLearn. Di Github banyak menyinggung tentang License.

Ekspektasi saya, di SoloLearn setidaknya memasang paragraph ini:

==================

Is remark of Tiara Mitchell valid ?

Answer 5

I think copyright law deems that any original work automatically belongs to the author. So yes.

If you want people to freely use your code you have to license it. Some possibilities are MIT, 2- or 3-clause BSD, one of the GNU licenses or a Creative Commons license.
