Let’s say I am selling some PHP scripts, developed from scratch by me, and also some Flash games, also developed from scratch by me.
I sold the flash games and PHP scripts to some clients, and to some of them I even sold them with source codes.
Now if one customer will sell the code to someone else without my approval, and that someone else, the 3rd person would claim that the code belongs to him, what can be done?
Can PHP scripts or codes be signed online or something like that?
When you sold to clients, does the contract stipulate that they are forbidden to sell it ? Also more importantly does the contract also specify that the client must not modify in anyway the source code and then sell it ?
Today, the best way to protect your I.P. is to use a lawyer and yes, this is a sad thing.
