The Troll Next Door, 6 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 292 (2007), Jennifer Kahaulelio Gregory
The Troll Next Door, 6 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 292 (2007), Jennifer Kahaulelio Gregory
UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law
The term Patent Troll is increasingly permeating news headlines. This comment explains where the term came from and how the changing landscape of patent enforcement has contributed to the evolution of the Patent Troll. Some have suggested that segregating Patent Trolls from other patent enforcers will solve many of the patent system’s woes. This comment analyzes proposed ways of distinguishing Patent Trolls and reveals them all as prejudicial and ineffective. The use of the term Patent Troll is a mask for underlying fears based on real shortcomings in the patent system, which need to be addressed.
Toward A Pluralistic Theory On An Efficacious Patent Institution, 6 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 220 (2007), Nari Lee
UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law
Time and time again, scholars have attempted to assess the efficacy of the intellectual property institution; these attempts have created a vast amount of literature. As impressive as the volume of work is that has been generated on this issue, so is the absence of a generally applicable theory of intellectual property, which either claims or disclaims the efficacy of the intellectual property institution. This article questions the existence of a general definition of efficiency that is applicable to the assessment of the patent institution. While it is true that the efficiency as applied to specific cases may be definable …
Hollywood Vs. The People Of The United States Of America: Regulating High-Definition Content And Associated Anti-Piracy Copyright Concerns, 6 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 525 (2007), Timothy M. Cho
UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law
With Blu-ray Disc (“BD”) and HD-DVD poised to take over the $24.6 billion home video market, the issue of copy protection is the most significant obstacle to overcome before this new technological era can be fully ushered in. This comment proposes that impending Advanced Access Content System (“AACS”) implementation and Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) enforcement are not effective remedies for protecting copyrighted material and curbing rampant piracy in connection with BD and HD-DVD. Limiting the proposed scope of the DMCA, rejecting analog hole legislation, and creating low cost digital marketplace alternatives to illicit activity are the best ways to …
The Preserve Access To Affordable Generics Act: Will Congress's Response To Reverse Payment Patent Settlements Enhance Competition In The Pharmaceutical Market?, 7 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 150 (2007), Reza Bagherian
UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law
In response to the Supreme Court’s failure to grant writ of certiorari to Federal Trade Commission v. Schering-Plough Corp., Congress proposed the Preserve Access to Affordable Generics Act to once again amend the Hatch-Waxman Act of 1984. Traditionally, the courts have used two antitrust standards, the rule of reason and the per se illegal rule, to determine whether a reverse payment patent settlement restrains trade. In Schering-Plough, the Eleventh Circuit articulated a third standard and held the reverse payment settlements between a pioneer drug company and two generic drug companies valid. This article proposes that traditional analysis of the rule …
Application Service Providing, Copyright, And Licensing, 25 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 79 (2007), Michael P. Widmer
Application Service Providing, Copyright, And Licensing, 25 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 79 (2007), Michael P. Widmer
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
Application Service Providing ("ASP"), where a vendor hosts a software application on her server and grants customers access to the application over a network -- without the software application itself being installed on the user’s computer -- is used by many, e.g. in the form of Web based e-mail services, and grows ever more important. This article argues that although ASP mainly raises questions (i) that come up in the context of traditional use of computer programs; or (ii) that have been addressed in the context of online use of works other than software, ASP has significantly different copyright implications …
Ict And Employer-Employee Power Dynamics: A Comparative Perspective Of United States' And Netherlands' Workplace Privacy In Light Of Information And Computer Technology Monitoring And Positioning Of Employees, 25 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 37 (2007), Colette Cuijpers
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
Employees can cause harm to their employers through Information and Computer Technology (ICT) in employment relationships; for example, through surfing for adult material on the Internet or leaking company secrets via a mobile phone. Employers have responded to this development by introducing various surveillance systems. Besides well-known forms of Internet and e-mail surveillance, positioning systems are becoming a new trend. The influence these systems have on the employment relationship can be far-reaching, as they offer the employer an insight into the employee’s whereabouts, outside the company premises as well as outside company hours. As a consequence, the boundaries between the …

Angling For A Fair Standard: A Recommendation For A Narrowly Tailored Non-Profit Exemption To The Closed Captioning Requirements, 25 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 165 (2007), Joshua Pila
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
In late 2006, the FCC’s Consumer and Government Affairs Bureau (“CGB”) issued the Anglers Order, providing a wholesale exemption for non-profit entities seeking to avoid the strictures of the Commission’s closed captioning rules. Disability advocates quickly criticized the Anglers Order on administrative law and communications law grounds. This paper avoids administrative law and communications law issues, but instead criticizes the Anglers Order on non-profit law and policy grounds. The paper then recommends and supports a post-application, narrowly-tailored financial test, automatically exempting A) non-profit organizations, with B) less than $25,000 in annual revenue, who C) receive no financial compensation for airing …
