Interesting concept !
A problem for publishers of any sort of photography, video, etc. I expect,
not much chance of enforcing it against Joe Bloggs who posts an image on
facebook, etc.
The article is not clear about how this law will be applied:
1. photograph the chair in the UK and publish in USofA ?
2. the chair designed in the UK, photograph it in NZ and publish on the
internet ?
3. what happens if you alter the chair (are you even allowed to do that ?) ?
Bureaucracy gone mad !

Can any of our UK members comment on this? Is it an accurate representation
of the law?
