A compact, source-linked package for journalists, researchers, lawyers and industry reviewers using SocialGravity’s bounded primary-source study.
Use the findings with their limits. The study codes 14 selected primary sources reviewed through 2026-09-05. It is not a global law census, market-size study or evidence about SocialGravity transactions.
The reviewed material treats permission, contract scope, compensation, asset control, disclosure, provenance, lifecycle controls and remedies as different parts of the operating environment. No source in this bounded dataset addresses all eight controls.
| Control | Sources addressing it |
|---|---|
| Permission | 9 of 14 |
| Specific scope | 6 of 14 |
| Compensation | 4 of 14 |
| Asset control | 2 of 14 |
| Disclosure | 3 of 14 |
| Provenance | 3 of 14 |
| Lifecycle | 7 of 14 |
| Remedy | 7 of 14 |
