Coding Privacy, Lilian Edwards
Chicago-Kent Law Review
Lawrence Lessig famously and usefully argues that cyberspace is regulated not just by law but also by norms, markets and architecture or "code." His insightful work might also lead the unwary to conclude, however, that code is inherently anti-privacy, and thus that an increasingly digital world must therefore also be increasingly devoid of privacy. This paper argues briefly that since technology is a neutral tool, code can be designed as much to fight for privacy as against it, and that what matters now is to look at what incentivizes the creation of pro- rather than anti-privacy code in the mainstream …

Navigating The Safe Harbor Rule: The Need For A Dmca Compass, Tiffany N. Beaty
Marquette Intellectual Property Law Review
The internet is a medium for more than just email and web browsing. Today, many internet users utilize the internet to access and share music, movies, and other types of media. Copyright law has attempted to keep up with the dynamic nature of the internet; however, this Comment posits it has only been marginally successful. The author examines whether the Safe Harbor Rule of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DCMA) is sufficient in balancing the need to protect copyright owners against the need for Internet Service Providers to be protected from third-party user suits. In doing so, the author concludes …

Working Toward Spontaneous Copyright Licensing: A Simple Solution For A Complex Problem, Tanya M. Woods
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
As the web evolves, so too are discussions on how to manage the rights of copyright owners online. Finding a solution that is balanced and that accounts for the international nature of the Internet is essential. While many have attempted to craft such a solution, a model that accommodates the spontaneity of copyright content users and that recognizes the multi-territorial nature of the Internet has yet to materialize. For this reason, this Article formulates a macro-level conceptual approach to building a practical copyright licensing model that could generate spontaneous digital copyright licenses to accommodate the creative impulses of web users …

Protecting Rights Online, Molly Land
Protecting Rights Online, Molly Land
Molly K. Land
Although the human rights and access to knowledge (A2K) movements share many of the same goals, their legal and regulatory agendas have little in common. While state censorship online is a central concern for human rights advocates, this issue has been largely ignored by the A2K movement. Likewise, human rights advocates have failed to examine the cumulative effect of expanding copyright protections on education and culture. These disparate agendas reflect fundamentally different views about what states should regulate and the role of international institutions. Overcoming this divide is critical to ensuring the movements can draw on their respective strengths to …

Internet Killed The Copyright Law: Perfect 10 V. Google And The Devastating Impact On The Exclusiive Right To Display, Deborah B. Morse
Deborah Brightman Morse
Never has the dissonance between copyright and innovation been so extreme. The Internet provides enormous economic growth due to the strength of e-commerce, and affords an avenue for creativity and the wide dissemination of information. Nevertheless, the Internet has become a plague on copyright law. The advent of the digital medium has made the unlawful reproduction, distribution, and display of copyrighted works essentially effortless. The law has been unable to keep pace with the rapid advance of technology. For the past decade, Congress has been actively attempting to draft comprehensible legislation in an effort to afford copyright owners more protection …
