Bookit Ip Series - Federal Trade Commission Privacy Law And Policy, Chris Hoofnagle

Chris Jay Hoofnagle

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) was established in 1914 to prevent unfair competition in commerce. Since that time, the FTC has been given greater authority to police anticompetitive practices. It has evolved into the most important regulator of information policy and now regulates our technological future. Unfortunately, the agency is often poorly understood. In his book Federal Trade Commission Privacy Law and Policy, Professor Hoofnagle will redress this confusion by explaining how the FTC arrived at its current position of power. He will offer practical tips for lawyers, legal academics, political scientists, historians, and those interested in obtaining a better …

From Bards To Search Engines: Finding What Readers Want From Ancient Times To The World Wide Web, Stephen Maurer

Stephen M. Maurer

Copyright theorists often ask how incentives can be designed to create better books, movies, and art. But this is not the whole story. As the Roman satirist Martial pointed out two thousand years ago, markets routinely ignore good and even excellent works. The insight reminds us that incentives to find content are just as necessary as incentives to make it. Recent social science research explains why markets fail and how timely interventions can save deserving titles from oblivion. This article reviews society’s long struggle to fix the vagaries of search since the invention of literature. We build on this history …

Territoriality Of Trade Marks In A Post-National Era, Graeme B. Dinwoodie, David Vaver

David Vaver

Professor Dinwoodie discusses the "Territoriality of Trade Marks in a Post-National Era"; proposing that a cardinal principle of IP law is that it is territorial, and it has always been that way even within the international systems since the late 19th century. However, global trade and social changes along with the creation of the online marketplace have called into question the practical relevance of this territoriality principle.There is a growing gap between the global reach of trade and the local nature of IP law, and what should be of interest to us is how we respond to this gap between …

Welcome Remarks And Keynote, Giuseppina D'Agostino, Sylvain Laporte

Giuseppina D'Agostino

This conference highlights the role that students play in commercializing intellectual property. Student researchers, whether in a university lab or R&D department of an organization, contribute to the development of a research project and are often the innovative force behind a project. The purpose of the conference is to learn from different perspectives on the role of student researchers in commercializing IP and the different policies that have been adopted to provide for the various parties’ interests with respect to that IP. The conference included interactive panel sessions to foster discussion. Two panels consist of members from government, industry and …

Patent Trolls As Parasites, Yaniv Heled

Yaniv Heled

This short commentary piece suggests that patent trolls may be better understood when viewed as analogous to biological parasites. Understanding patent trolls in this manner may help in explaining the patent troll phenomenon and in setting realistic expectations in the fight against them. It may also explain the difficulty in designing perfect solutions against patent trolls and why we must not be discouraged by this fact in our efforts to curb their harmful effects.

Toward A Regulatory Model Of Internet Intermediary Liability: File-Sharing And Copyright Enforcement, Christopher M. Swartout

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

One of the major problems presented by digital content and the internet has been the failure of traditional copyright enforcement mechanisms to adequately address infringement that takes place via online file-sharing. Recently, laws that would introduce a new copyright enforcement paradigm have been proposed in numerous countries and have received strong support from content industries seeking a more effective enforcement regime. These laws are often referred to as "graduated response" policies. Although there is some variation, graduated response laws typically impose requirements on Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to cooperate with rightsholders and government in policing illegal file-sharing. ISPs are required …
