Digital technologies are one of the most important challenges facing the legal framework of intellectual property, the cornerstone of the publishing market. Until a few years ago, this system proved highly useful for encouraging creation, guaranteeing remuneration for creators and regulating the market for the creation and exploitation of works. This status quo began to crumble with the popularization of the Internet and the emergence of new rights related to the production, distribution and sale of contents in the online environment. In this scenario, the exercise and management of author rights present challenges, particularly when there are legal loopholes and the evolution of technology is constantly raising new issues.
