BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

You should be protecting your dance moves, yeah

A celebrity choreographer wants to make sure people stealing dance moves from TikTok performers can’t touch this.

JaQuel Knight, who has choreographed for Beyoncé and other performers, has teamed up with Logitech to help minority dancers who post their moves on TikTok to copyright and monetize their creations, BET.com reported Thursday.

The problem is other performers have been copying moves without giving credit for compensation to the originators. The issue gained steam when in March, singer Addison Rae performed several TikTok dances on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” but did not give credit to the choreographers.

Mr. Knight in a statement called his latest collaboration to help up-and-coming TikTok stars “a remarkable step in our goal toward creating a system of protection for young creators.”
