2) a) Most of the work I did was for college assignments which included a famous company’s logo but even so, I wasnā€™t specifically told to give credit to the original artist. When using other peopleā€™s designs, I try using stock websites like Adobe Stock. For my one free-lancing job, I was told what to do and I myself created a logo. For images that I couldnā€™t find on the stock website, I would credit the artist.


b) Fairey deserved the punishment as he also admitted what he did was wrong. ā€œMy wrong-headed actions, born out of a moment of fear and embarrassment, have not only been financially and psychologically costly to myself and my family,ā€ Fairey knew what would have happened so instead of getting in contact with Associated Press, he decided to continue with his design. ā€œbut later admitted that he had been mistaken and had tried to cover up his mistake.ā€  I think what Mr. Fairey got for his final punishment is well-deserved.
