La Industria Del Libro 3.0 Y J.K. Rowling, Rodolfo C. Rivas Rea Esq., Maria Alejandra Lopez Garcia Esq.
Rodolfo C. Rivas
The authors provide a brief overview of what could be called the 3.0 version of the book industry. Under the 3.0 book industry, the author’s role in exploiting their creations has to embrace new and creative business models, which may often come into conflict with publisher’s old business models. In the article, the authors take a look at the innovative business models implemented by J.K. Rowling, Stephen King, Radiohead and Frank Ocean amongst others. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Los autores proporcionan una breve descripción de lo que podría llamarse la versión 3.0 de la industria del libro.

Do Students Turn Over Their Rights When They Turn In Their Papers? A Case Study Of Turnitin.Com, Stephen Sharon
Do Students Turn Over Their Rights When They Turn In Their Papers? A Case Study Of Turnitin.Com, Stephen Sharon
Touro Law Review
Turnitin is a rapidly growing online anti-plagiarism service subscribed to by thousands of schools in the United States. Though the pursuit of honesty and integrity are at the heart of our academic institutions and the Turnitin anti-plagiarism service, there is a fatal flaw in its execution. This comment examines the copyright and fair use arguments presented by four Virginia students asserting that Turnitin violated their intellectual property rights. This comment goes beyond the facts of the four Virginia students to explore the root issues of a service that collects and distributes the copyrighted works submitted to it by hundreds of …

xiaoxiang shi
This article examines copyright principles applied in a recent Australian case concerning the legality of a consumer cloud computing service - “TV Now” - a free to air TV recording service based on the Internet.

Similar decisions made by the courts in Singapore and the United States have also been considered. The ultimate purpose of this article is to explore how copyright law has been struggling to adapte to cope with the advent of new technologies for time shifting of …
Combating Online Trademark And Copyright Infringement: Ice And Doj Domain Name Seizures New Tools In The Government’S Efforts To Combat Online Ip Infringement, Tanya Dunbar
Pace Intellectual Property, Sports & Entertainment Law Forum
The ICE seizures and proposed legislations to codify ICE-style seizures have led many to question the legitimacy of ICE’s seizures and decry the bills as censorship. Tanya Dunbar’s article explores the reasons for the government’s actions, the seizure mechanism the government employs, and the controversy surrounding domain name seizures. Where possible, the Ms. Dunbar offers solutions to some of the controversial issues that may arise.

Copyright Exhaustion And The Personal Use Dilemma, Aaron K. Perzanowski, Jason M. Schultz
Copyright Exhaustion And The Personal Use Dilemma, Aaron K. Perzanowski, Jason M. Schultz
Aaron K. Perzanowski
Copyright law struggles to provide a coherent framework for analyzing personal uses. Although there is widespread agreement that at least some such uses are non-infringing, the doctrinal basis for that conclusion remains unclear. In particular, the prevailing explanations of fair use and implied license are both flawed in important respects. This Article proposes a new explanation for the favored status of certain personal uses. Drawing on the principle of copyright exhaustion - the notion that once the copyright holder parts with a particular copy of a work, its power to control the use and disposition of that copy is constrained …
Drm At The Intersection Of Copyright Law And Technology : A Case Study For Regulation, Severine Dusollier
Drm At The Intersection Of Copyright Law And Technology : A Case Study For Regulation, Severine Dusollier
Severine Dusollier
Digital Rights Management, that have been deployed to enforce copyright, present an interesting case study for regulation. DRM, as a technology, has significant effects on copyright regulation. When applied to limiting access or controlling the use of some works, and reinforced by anti-circumvention provisions, a DRM system acts as a technical norm regulating the very use of a copyrighted work, as copyright regulation does. But the normative effect of DRM technologies is rather different in terms of content and in terms of nature. Mere access to and use of works are now under control, whereas copyright is traditionally limited to …

The Future Of Cybertravel: Legal Implications Of The Evasion Of Geolocation, Marketa Trimble
The Future Of Cybertravel: Legal Implications Of The Evasion Of Geolocation, Marketa Trimble
Scholarly Works
Although the Internet is valued by many of its supporters particularly because it both defies and defeats physical borders, these important attributes are now being exposed to attempts by both governments and private entities to impose territorial limits through blocking or permitting access to content by Internet users based on their geographical location—a territorial partitioning of the Internet. One of these attempts, for example, is the recent Stop Online Piracy Act (“SOPA”) proposal in the United States. This article, as opposed to earlier literature on the topic discussing the possible virtues and methods of erecting borders in cyberspace, focuses on …

Open Connectivity, Open Data: Two Dimensions Of The Freedom To Seek, Receive And Impart Information In The New Zealand Bill Of Rights, Jonathon Penney
Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press
Recently, ideas about "rights" to Internet access or connectivity have received growing recognition from governments, legal institutions, and other political actors in several countries, including New Zealand Despite this emerging political and legal recognition, there are few, if any, systematic studies exploring such ideas. This paper aims to change this. First, it offers a theoretical exploration of the idea of a "right" to Internet access, including the diferent versions of such rights talk. Secondly, it examines whether there is any legal basis for such rights claims in New Zealand and ultimately argues that section 14 of the New Zealand Bill …

Madisonian Fair Use, Michael J. Madison
Madisonian Fair Use, Michael J. Madison
Articles
This short essay reflects on developments in the law, scholarship, and practice of fair use since the publication in 2004 of an earlier article on patterns in fair use practice and adjudication. It synthesizes many of those developments in the idea of “Madisonian” fair use, borrowing the separation of powers metaphor from James Madison’s work on the US Constitution and applying it, lightly and in a preliminary way, to copyright.
The End Of The Work As We Know It, Michael J. Madison
The End Of The Work As We Know It, Michael J. Madison
Articles
This paper takes a new look at the concept of the work of authorship in copyright, known in other systems as the copyright work. It complements inquiries into authorship and originality, extending earlier scholarship on the origins of legal “things” or objects and on the multi-dimensional character of their borders and boundaries.
Book Review: William F. Patry, How To Fix Copyright, Graham Reynolds
Book Review: William F. Patry, How To Fix Copyright, Graham Reynolds
Canadian Journal of Law and Technology
In How to Fix Copyright, William F. Patry, one of America’s leading experts on copyright, calls for a “top-to-bottom, systemic overhaul” of copyright laws. For a Canadian readership in the midst of our own process of copyright reform, such a call to action is both timely and relevant.
Sex Exceptionalism In Intellectual Property, Jennifer E. Rothman
Sex Exceptionalism In Intellectual Property, Jennifer E. Rothman
All Faculty Scholarship
The state regulates sexual activity through a combination of criminal and civil sanctions and the award of benefits, such as marriage and First Amendment protections, for acts and speech that conform with the state’s vision of acceptable sex. Although the penalties for non-compliance with the state’s vision of appropriate sex are less severe in intellectual property law than those, for example, in criminal or family law, IP law also signals the state’s views of sex. In this Article written for the Stanford symposium on the Adult Entertainment industry, I extend my consideration of the law’s treatment of sex after Lawrence …
