Down The Rabbit Hole: Applying A Right To Be Forgotten To Personal Images Uploaded On Social Networks, Eugenia Georgiades
Fordham Intellectual Property, Media and Entertainment Law Journal
The right to be forgotten has been the subject of extensive scrutiny in the broad context of data protection. However, little consideration has been given to the misuse of personal images that are uploaded on social networks. Given the prevalent use of online and digital spaces, social networks process and use various forms of data, including personal images that are uploaded by individuals.

“Fit For Purpose”: Why The European Union Should Not Extend The Term Of Related Rights Protection In Europe., Susanna Monseau
Fordham Intellectual Property, Media and Entertainment Law Journal
This paper argues that the European Union should not, as it currently proposes, extend the term of protection for sound recordings in Europe.

International Copyright: An Unorthodox Analysis American Association Of Law Schools' Intellectual Property Section's Symposium On Compliance With The Trips Agreement, Hugh C. Hansen
Faculty Scholarship
Professor Hansen reviews the development of copyright from its traditional domestic orientation to the modern emphasis on globalization and harmonization. His commentary analogizes modem trends in international copyright to religious equivalents. He notes that the current players include a "secular priesthood" (the traditional copyright bar and academics), "agnostics and atheists" (newer academics and lawyers, particularly those concerned with technology and the culture of the public domain) and "missionaries" (whose task it is to increase copyright protection around the world and who are primarily driven by trade considerations). The copyright "crusade" has been driven by this last group. The author compares …
