ADRIENNE KENDRICK, IP Watchdog; This Year is Poised to Be a Landmark One for Tattoo Copyright Litigation
"Tattoos have been around for millennia, but their popularity is increasing significantly. According to 2021 data, roughly 13% of Baby Boomers had at least one tattoo, compared to 32% of Generation X and 41% of Millennials. Other than disagreements about the appropriateness of visible tattoos in certain workplaces, tattoos generally cause few headaches for their owners, and certainly not legal headaches. That may no longer be the case, however, as tattoos become more common among celebrities and other high-profile individuals whose likenesses are commonly portrayed in digital media.
While there has been relatively little litigation concerning tattoo copyrights, 2023 could be the year that changes."
