Bringing a video camera into a movie theater, and selling or uploading the resulting video is an example of copyright infringement.
Uploading music from a protected CD to a filesharing site is a common example. Penalties vary by country; in the US, statutory fines range from $750 to $30,000 per infringement.

Because it violated copyright, I assume.

In the case of a work-made-for-hire, the copyright would be controlled by the entity that caused the work to be created, rather than the creator. A photographer under contract to a magazine, for example, would not have copyright for those photos.
If you are the copyright holder, simply fill out the complaint form (link below) and YouTube will work with you to address the issue. If you aren't, you may wish to alert the copyright holder.
It depends what your actions were that violated the law, but the most common punishment is in fees.
Making a copy of the software, including uploading it to a filesharing service, would be copyright infringement. Unauthorized alteration to the code would also be infringing.
theres no c in trademarkC is actually a copyright symbol. An example would be if you wrote a song and wanted to register it with the United States Copyright office, then you would see that c symbol following the year and the author's name or company.
Nearly everything, unless explicitly stated otherwise. The link below (to Project Gutenberg) gives an example of materials that would not be protected by copyright.
Copyright is a bundle of rights ascribed to the creator of a work for a limited time. It includes the exclusive right to copy, alter, distribute, or perform/display a work, or authorize others to do so. Copyright only has "dangers" when the law is violated. Copyright infringement is punishable by fines, and in extreme cases, jail time.
Copyright is a complex legal issue especially with the numerous amendments etc. Basically it is free of copyright BUT recordings would have copyright as would the printed music, that is, the music publisher would have copyright on his production of the printed score. An example is and please do not take this as binding legal advice - you decide to put on Carmen in your town hall so you photocopy the various parts of the score - your photocopying most likely breaches copyright. As I said its complex.
