Moral rights Waver (Score 3, Interesting)

I think it needs to be pointed out explicitly that due to their release form microsoft are takening away the moral right of an author to be named as an author of a piece of work. http://www.msn.co.uk/img/en/en-gb/portal/specials/ thoughtthieves/14_form.pdf

I will formally licence, on terms acceptable to Microsoft, all intellectual property rights in my film and agree to waive all moral rights in relation to my film if requested to do so. I understand that if I do not complete the necessary documentation by the stated date, my entry will be disqualified from the competition.

Moral rights are defined witihin Article 6bis of the Berne Convention which protects attribution and integrity, stating:

Independently of the author's economic rights, and even after the transfer of the said rights, the author shall have the right to claim authorship of the work and to object to any distortion, mutilation or other modification of, or other derogatory action in relation to, the said work, which would be prejudicial to his honor or reputation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moral_rights

So Microsoft is asking this kids to give up your right to stop people from passing off their hard work as the property of someone else.This is the most hypocritically thing I have ever seen.
