Note: Scraping Photographs, Maggie King
Note: Scraping Photographs, Maggie King
Notre Dame Journal on Emerging Technologies
This note explores whether any existing laws prohibit scraping photographs, as suggested by Facebook and other big tech companies’ recent actions against Clearview. After examining each potential claim, this note argues that no existing law should be construed to hold Clearview liable for scraping photographs, because doing so would create inconsistencies in existing law. But also, the apparent legality of Clearview’s scraping activity presents an argument for a reversal of the recent trend towards laws that, guided by the principle of a free and open internet, favor scraping. Rather, the apparent legality of activity that ultimately enables otherwise unrestrained modern …
Software Patent In U.S. Law, Mohammed Hassan Abdullah
Software Patent In U.S. Law, Mohammed Hassan Abdullah
UAEU Law Journal
The handling of the patent system is at variance in the American system with that in the European Union's system, where the American system began to allow software protection under its patent system in addition to copyright protection while the European Union's Patent Office accepts this tendency some member States reject it. This affects negatively the level of protection and its nature, which should be available in a suitable and balanced manner between the different legal systems due to the nature of software as a countries' trans-border product. Thus, this research study calls for a special system of protection since …

Copyright And Disability, Blake E. Reid
Copyright And Disability, Blake E. Reid
Publications
A vast array of copyrighted works—books, video programming, software, podcasts, video games, and more—remain inaccessible to people with disabilities. International efforts to adopt limitations and exceptions to copyright law that permit third parties to create and distribute accessible versions of books for people with print disabilities have drawn some attention to the role that copyright law plays in inhibiting the accessibility of copyrighted works. However, copyright scholars have not meaningfully engaged with the role that copyright law plays in the broader tangle of disability rights.

A Tale Of Two Interoperabilities; Or, How Google V. Oracle Could Become Social Media Legislation, Charles Duan
A Tale Of Two Interoperabilities; Or, How Google V. Oracle Could Become Social Media Legislation, Charles Duan
Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals
The Supreme Court'srecent decision in Google LLC v. Oracle America, Inc. has provided the latest word on an issue that many have described as "interoperability," and it comes at a time when lawmakers around the world are debating a policy called "interoperability" with respect to majorInternetplatforms. At first glance, these two similarly named policy conversations copyright protection of software interfaces and interconnection among competing Internet platforms, respectively have little to do with each other. Yet they are vitally intertwined: the activities and issues featured in Google are so closely linked to the questions of digital competition that interoperability reforms directed …
Hybrid Ip Rights For Software, Apis, And Guis: Understanding Copyright's Paradigm Shift, Howard Skaist
Hybrid Ip Rights For Software, Apis, And Guis: Understanding Copyright's Paradigm Shift, Howard Skaist
Catholic University Journal of Law and Technology
The non-literal scope of protection for software is intricate legally and is intricate technical. Thus, despite literally decades of court decisions and a mountain of legal scholar written on the subject in that time, it appears that there is still no consistent agreement about it, as evidenced by the Google v. Oracle which has percolated in the courts for nearly a decade and is now being heard by the US Supreme Court (oral argument was on October 7, 2020). However, the thesis of this article that a legal construct is capable of being formulated that is analytically consistent and that …
