With the explosion of the internet and social media, nearly every company could be considered a publisher in some capacity. Because of this, it's no longer just those who work in traditional publishing or entertainment that need to worry about copyright violations and intellectual property risk. Examples of businesses engaging in publishing include:

• The "widget" manufacturer that maintains a website with an online catalog and instructional videos for use of their product.
• The cosmetics company that has Instagram and TikTok accounts where they share influencer videos that are synced with music or have music incidentally in the background.
• A restaurant chain that has a Facebook account where they post photos of their food, as well as other articles and reviews of their restaurant that they located on the web.
• A non-profit entity that posts activist videos and short-form films on its YouTube and Twitter accounts that are filmed in front of a graffiti-marked building.

Like companies in the media and entertainment industry, each of these businesses are indeed engaging in activities that risk violating the intellectual property rights of another party.
