Abstract:
Method and system for allowing a famous entity to reach out to their audience/fans/the public with comments, explanations and corrections in response to stories/allegations published about them in the media without infringing copyrights of the media owners. Using their portable device, users/fans may take a picture/snapshot or even activate their camera feed over a published page (e.g. magazine/poster/banner, web page) which is by default a copyrighted material. The imaging device transforms a picture of the page into a digest representing a non-copyrighted format of the copyrighted page and sends the digest to a remote server. The server performs a search and comparison between the received digest and pre-stored digests for which a reply was provided by the famous entity (VIP). If a match exists, the server fetches the reply and sends it back to the portable device for rendering on the display device of the portable device. The reply may include one or more of: text, drawings, handwritten notes, video, music etc.
