Instagram makes visual sharing attractive to users who want to share images and videos in real time (Thornton, 2014).

An analysis of the fundamental tensions between copyright and social media: The legal implications of sharing images on Instagram Copyright is inherently intertwined with the development of technology, and none more so than the advent of the Internet and sharing technologies. More recently, social networks have become the latest challenge for copyright law and policy. This article builds on the literature recognises the underlying conflict in between copyright and social networking; namely the fact that the basic implication of copyright is the restriction of copying, whereas the ethos of social networking is the promotion of sharing. In particular, this article focuses on the disparity between the restricted acts of copying and communication to the public under copyright law and the encouragement of sharing on social network platform Instagram. In doing so, it contextualises the debate surrounding copyright and social media, and provides an understanding of the legal implications of using Instagram. As such this paper analyses 1) infringement of copyright protected work on Instagram, and 2) user-agreement and licensing of copyright material on Instagram. This study concludes that the disparity between the principles of copyright and social media lead to confusion and vulnerability of users. Therefore, it is suggested that Instagram should better inform its users of the implications of sharing third-party content as well as the terms of its user-agreement. This could be done by implementing a copyright strategy, which includes a notice and takedown system as well as investing in producing educational content for users.

The purpose of this research is to investigate how the green image of a city can affect potential visitors' attitude toward the city in the context of user-generated content.The study adopts a 2 × 2 experimental design in which the greenness of the city image and the social distance between the users and the authors of social media content are examined. The results demonstrate that green image has a significant effect on attitudes toward cities. Moreover, the effects of social media content vary according to the perceived social distance between the author of the post and potential visitors. This study contributes to the literature by assessing the role that social media content plays in place branding and communication. Furthermore, it provides relevant insights on how institutions should enhance the sustainable resources of cities with their environmental policy and encourage the generation of content from various stakeholders to contribute to the development of a city's image.
