CAMPAIGNING
ACID is the leading UK voice on Design and IP on the key issues which affect our members and the broader design community. We oppose any move by Government to erode existing copyright law to allow AI training without attribution, transparency or recompense. We fight for fair protection and enforcement, especially for lone, micro and SME creators to counter David & Goliath copying, including the rise in online marketplace infringements.
