Cyberspace is often a battlefield with a wide array of armies posed to challenge one another across the increasing array of rhetoric and technology that has made it such a potent arena for global digital commerce. Perry Barlow's infamous demand that cyberspace be left to its own devices because of its unique unregulated nature may have been answered by Larry Lessig's reply that code may in fact be used to regulate cyberspace, but the reality is that social norming demands, the evanescence of technological controls, and the perceived utility of illicit conduct utilizing the internet make any regulation problematic at …

UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law
Is YouTube, the popular video sharing website, a new revolution in information sharing or a profitable clearing-house for unauthorized distribution of copyrighted material? YouTube’s critics claim that it falls within the latter category, in line with Napster and Grokster. This comment, however, determines that YouTube is fundamentally different from past infringers in that it complies with statutory provisions concerning the removal of copyrighted materials. Furthermore, YouTube’s central server architecture distinguishes it from peer-to-peer file sharing websites. This comment concludes that any comparison to Napster or Grokster issuperficial, and overlooks the potential benefits of YouTube to copyright
The Protection Of Maps And Spatial Databases In Europe And The United States By Copyright And The Sui Generis Right, 24 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 195 (2006), Katleen Janssen, Jos Dumortier
The Protection Of Maps And Spatial Databases In Europe And The United States By Copyright And The Sui Generis Right, 24 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 195 (2006), Katleen Janssen, Jos Dumortier
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
Spatial data and applications play an ever-increasing part in our economy and in our society in general, but the protection of spatial databases by intellectual property rights seems to be a challenge because the Internet and information technology have caused a considerable increase in the copying of data, maps, route descriptions, hiking trails, etc. The illegal copying of spatial data, however, has caused the data producers to turn to several means of protection, such as intellectual property legislation, unfair competition, confidentiality and privacy. This paper begins by determining what is meant by spatial data. Thereafter, the paper reflects on the …

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
Using the hypothetical of a college student victimized by a fraudulent website, this comment addresses the issue of Internet fraud. In the example presented, the perpetrators are Greek nationals located in Greece. Focusing on the intangible and international nature of the Internet, the comment addresses the complications surrounding litigating an Internet fraud case. The issues discussed include a determination of the forum where the suit should be brought, preservation of the status quo pending determination of the dispute, and the status of a transnational cooperation on the issue of recognition and enforcement of judgments. The comment presents the options available …
Transsexuals And The Family Medical Leave Act, 24 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 315 (2006), Charles Thomas Little
Transsexuals And The Family Medical Leave Act, 24 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 315 (2006), Charles Thomas Little
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
This article examines the implications for transsexuals seeking sexual reassignment surgery (“SRS”) under the Family Medical Leave Act (“FMLA”). Currently, the scant case law pertaining to the FMLA suggests that the statutes and regulations will likely fail to provide even minimal protection to transsexuals. If applied literally, the FMLA may present barriers to transsexuals seeking SRS in opposition to the true purpose behind the Act, which is to allow employees the opportunity to take reasonable leave from work by mandating more medical leave than the employers might otherwise be willing to grant for things such as the adoption or birth …

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
This article argues that President Bush’s domestic electronic surveillance program is unconstitutional. The program allows the President to order the NSA to conduct surveillance of electronic communications, including communications involving United States citizens, without court order. The authors conclude that the President lacked the statutory or constitutional power to authorize such a program and that the program runs afoul to the letter and the spirit of the constitutional protection against unreasonable searches and seizures embraced by the Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution. Congress and the President share overlapping constitutional authority in matters of foreign affairs and national security. …
Voip Goes The Bad Guy: Understanding The Legal Impact Of The Use Of Voice Over Ip Communications In Cases Of Nsa Warrantless Eavesdropping, 24 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 227 (2006), Eric Koester
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
For purposes of national security, the Bush administration delegated authority to the National Security Administration (“NSA”) to conduct warrantless surveillance of Americans; and such surveillance defies tradition. At the same time, emerging communications technology, like Voice over Internet Protocol (“VoIP”), complicates the already controversial issue by generating uncertainty about how courts will analyze warrantless surveillance of such forums. The problem lies in outdated communications and surveillance regulations, which effectively address older communications forums, like the telephone, but encounter stifling ambiguity vis-à-vis VoIP and other new forums. VoIP is a relatively new technology, but it encompasses the large and ever-growing use …

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
This Article provides a timely examination of U.S. law and policy concerning information privacy on the Internet, a subject that receives almost daily attention in the press. This Article constructs a new theoretical framework from the writings of Alasdair MacIntyre, a major contemporary philosopher and social theorist. Over the past 30 years, MacIntyre has examined the roots and continuing impact of the failure of post-Enlightenment thinkers to produce an account of human nature and action that could replace an older Aristotelian account and command the assent of all rational persons. In addition to extending MacIntyre’s examination of our post-Enlightenment situation, …

Regulating Access To Databases Through Antitrust Law, 2006 Stan. Tech. L. Rev. 7 (2006), Daryl Lim
UIC Law Open Access Faculty Scholarship
It is largely uncontroversial that the “creative” effort in a database will be protected by copyright. However, any effort to extend protection to purely factual databases creates difficulties in determining the proper method and scope of protection. This Paper argues that antitrust law can be used to supplement intellectual property law in maintaining the “access-incentive” balance with respect to databases. It starts from the premise that a trend toward “TRIPs-plus” rights in databases, whatever its form, is inevitable. The reason is a simple, but compelling one: business needs shape the law. Various means of database access regulation are explored and …
Why Are Competitor's Advertising Links Displayed When I Google My Product? An Analysis Of Internet Search Engine Liability For Trademark Infringement, 5 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 431 (2006), Isaiah A. Fishman
UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law
Traditional federal trademark law is being challenged in the current case of Google v. AmericanBlind. When internet issues clash with trademark infringement, courts are often faced with the dangerous task of either refusing to stretch not specifically internet tailored trademark law to grant remedy to a perceived wrong or refusing to grant remedy because of the chilling effect the remedy may have on traditional trademark. By analyzing the history of trademark law in relation with internet issues, focusing on domain name cases, pop-up advertising cases, and search engine cases, it becomes clear that specific congressional action is the most viable …
Intellectual Property Rights In The Internet Era: The New Frontier, 5 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 589 (2006), Lulin Gao
UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law
With the rapid development of information and Internet technologies, how to protect intellectual property (IP) rights in the Internet era became a new frontier for IP practitioners and scholars internationally. This article highlights some important IP protection issues related to copyright, patent, trademark, and domain names, as well as the impact of technological advances on IP protection in the Internet era. The author believes that in order to solve these new emerging issues, the most important principle is keeping the balance between different sides with stakes in the IP right. Finally, international cooperation must be enhanced with more technical assistance …
The Wipo "Internet Treaties" The United States As The Driver: The United States As The Main Source Of Obstruction — As Seen By An Anti-Revolutionary Central European, 6 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 17 (2006), Mihály Ficsor
UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law
The copyright policy of the United States developed from initial isolationism, through the 1891 Chase Act, various bilateral and inter-American agreements and the establishment of the Universal Copyright Convention, to active participation in the international copyright cooperation. This development was completed by the United States’ accession to the Berne Convention in 1988. Since then, the United States has played a leading role in this field, which was manifested both during the negotiations of the 1994 TRIPS Agreement and the preparatory work of the two 1996 WIPO “Internet Treaties”, the WCT and the WPPT. These WIPO Treaties, the preparation and adoption …

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
Millions of people download billions of music files over the Internet, using peer-to-peer ("P2P") services such as Grokster, StreamCast, Morpheus, and Kazaa. This practice has been challenged as violative of copyright and, it has been argued, the magnitude of copyright violations facilitated by P2P services justifies banning the services entirely. This argument has been based on the assumption that most transfers over P2P services violate copyright. The starting point for this discussion is the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court to grant the certiorari petition of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios et al. to review the Ninth Circuit decision in MGM …

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
Hong Kong, an international finance center, has been enjoying great benefits generated by computer-mediated communication ("CMC") in the new Information Age. On the other hand with the rapid and advanced development in technology, Hong Kong's economy is increasingly and irreversibly relying, and made dependent upon CMC and the Internet to operate, because the Internet has become a catalyst of reform and development in other arenas including social, cultural, and public policy. The Information Age raises new criminality concerns as it aggregates traditional criminal problems since great amounts of data are transmitted by and stored on computers is beyond imagination and …

Any discussion of European policies is a complicated one, in part because the word "Europe" means different things to different people. At the present time, the European Union has expanded to twenty-five countries and more countries may become provisional members within the next years. These countries represent a multitude of cultures, languages, and legal traditions so talking about a "European" approach to a given matter is to risk making inherently flawed generalizations about diverse peoples, cultures, and systems. However, one generalization is rather safe to assert: the traditional regulatory model in Europe has been based on a state-run monopoly structure …

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
The CoE Convention on cybercrime provides a treaty-based framework that imposes on the participating nations the obligation to enact legislation criminalizing certain conduct related to computer systems, create investigative procedures and ensure their availability to domestic law enforcement authorities to investigate cybercrime offenses, including procedures to obtain electronic evidence in all of its forms and create a regime of broad international cooperation, including assistance in extradition of fugitives sought for crimes identified under the CoE Convention. Since there is no internationally recognized legal definition of computer crime, this article briefly presents the generally recognized categories of cybercrime and then proceeds …
