Convergence And Incongruence: Trademark Law And Icann's Introduction Of New Generic Top-Level Domains, 25 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 625 (2008), Christine Haight Farley
Convergence And Incongruence: Trademark Law And Icann's Introduction Of New Generic Top-Level Domains, 25 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 625 (2008), Christine Haight Farley
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
The author demonstrates how problematic the convergences between Internet technology, the demands of a burgeoning e-market, and trademark laws have created a myriad of issues in international governance of domain names. While the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (“ICANN”) has been tasked with resolving some of the most problematic information ownership issues in e-commerce, she demonstrates that current changes in domain name registries ignore the real world problems posed by these convergences.
The Supreme Court's Trademark Jurisprudence: Categorical Divergence In The Interest Of Information Convergence, 25 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 635 (2008), Sheldon Halpern
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
The author shows that convergence has placed trademark law in the center of some of the hard-fought battles over information ownership in intellectual property. From fights over moral rights, to collisions with patents, trademarks in the new technological age have raised questions that he suggests might be better analyzed if the associative nature of trademarks were recognized and applied.

Access To Computer Programs Under The Dmca, 25 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 641 (2008), Dennis S. Karjala
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
The author explores the convergences between technology and information in the critical area of computer programs and the DMCA. Examining recent attempts to raise protected access control measures under the DMCA to non-communication related content, he demonstrates that not all fears of unlimited expansion of copyright are justified. To the contrary, courts are showing a remarkable sensitivity to the problem.
When Worlds Collide: The Uneasy Convergence Of Creativity And Innovation, 25 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 653 (2008), Doris E. Long
When Worlds Collide: The Uneasy Convergence Of Creativity And Innovation, 25 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 653 (2008), Doris E. Long
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
The author contends that in the area of computer software protection convergence has resulted in confusion in the goals of copyright and patent laws to the detriment of both. By confusing “innovation” with “creativity,” she contends that copyright protection has been strained by its efforts to fit the demands of functional code within its expressive protection goals. She concludes by suggesting that we go “back to the future” to resurrect an international sui generis system for software and allow both copyright and patent to go back to their original, and distinctly different, policy goals.
Information Governance, 25 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 673 (2008), Michael J. Madison
Information Governance, 25 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 673 (2008), Michael J. Madison
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
The author goes back to the first principles of information governance and discusses what impact the means and methods that we chose to control information has on the nature of information itself. Focusing on the Google Book Project, he suggests an analytical method for considering information access and control issues that avoids privileging any particular player and instead focuses on information governance as a dynamic process.
The Future Of Privacy Policies: A Privacy Nutrition Label Filled With Fair Information Practices, 26 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 1 (2008), Corey A. Ciocchetti
The Future Of Privacy Policies: A Privacy Nutrition Label Filled With Fair Information Practices, 26 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 1 (2008), Corey A. Ciocchetti
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
The article looks at the threats accompanying online shopping, such as identity theft and aggregated data files. Such issues arise when companies carelessly lose laptops filled with unencrypted data or callously sell data on the open market with collected personally identifying information (PII). The article explains that although privacy policies are supposed to force companies to strengthen their privacy practices they are not always effective because companies often post inconspicuous, vague and legalese-filled policies. These ambiguous postings cause online shoppers to blindly submit PII and ignore privacy practices completely. The article proposes a solution to this problem through the standardization …
Opening The Red Cross International Tracing Service Archive, 26 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 161 (2008), Kenneth Waltzer
Opening The Red Cross International Tracing Service Archive, 26 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 161 (2008), Kenneth Waltzer
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
The Red Cross International Tracing Service Archive in Bad Arolsen contains nearly 17.5 million names and nearly 50 million World War II and post-war era documents. The Bonn Accords designated the International Tracing Service (“ITS”) as the sole caretaker of these documents. A recent revision to the Bonn Accords has resulted in a reopening of archives at Bad Arolsen. ITS has started to digitize materials, and the data has been distributed to designated research institutions. The revision also resulted in access to the archives for research purposes. This expanded availability of the information has raised a number of important questions …
Beyond Whiffle-Ball Bats: Addressing Identity Crime In An Information Economy, 26 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 47 (2008), Erin Kenneally, Jon Stanley
Beyond Whiffle-Ball Bats: Addressing Identity Crime In An Information Economy, 26 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 47 (2008), Erin Kenneally, Jon Stanley
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
The article discusses the challenges to the protection of private personal information in the age of rapid technological changes and advances with a particular focus on the explosion of Identity Theft Crime (IDC). The paper highlights the compartmentalized and imbalanced roles that the free market and law enforcement (LE) play in response to this emerging threat to privacy, the implications of this dynamic, and recommendations for improving the societal risk management of Identity Crime.
United States V. Andrus: Password Protect Your Roommate, Not Your Computer, 26 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 183 (2008), Sarah M. Knight
United States V. Andrus: Password Protect Your Roommate, Not Your Computer, 26 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 183 (2008), Sarah M. Knight
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
The article looks at the decision in United States v. Andrus, where it was determined that the police could obtain consent from a father to search an adult son’s computer without first checking if the father who gave consent know the password and therefore had apparent authority to search. The police used Encase, software designed to make a forensic copy of a hard drive, without even turning on the computer. The 10th Circuit majority opinion decided the police committed no error when they conducted the search. The article’s author argues that the dissenting opinion took the correct position in its …
Wikipedia Made Law? The Federal Judicial Citation Of Wikipedia, 26 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 229 (2008), Amber Lynn Wagner
Wikipedia Made Law? The Federal Judicial Citation Of Wikipedia, 26 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 229 (2008), Amber Lynn Wagner
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
In this comment the author examines the new and growing body of federal opinions citing Wikipedia an authoritative source. The comment details how Wikipedia articles are generated, and the ease with which anyone can edit them, to illustrate their shortcomings as sources for making judicial determinations. The author provides examples of federal cases where judges rely on Wikipedia to define terms ranging from colloquial phrases to medical equipment. The author points out that in spite of several academic institutions and the U.S. Trade and Patent Office banning it as a source, federal judges continue to rely on Wikipedia in their …

The Twenty-Seventh Annual John Marshall Law School International Moot Court Competition In Information Technology And Privacy Law:Summary Of Bench Memorandum, 26 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 259 (2008), Robin Ficke, James Lai, Steven Tseng, Panagiota Kelali
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
Petitioner, Alex Romero (“Romero”), appeals to the Marshall Supreme Court from an order granting summary judgment in favor of Respondent, Windbucket Entertainment, LLC (“Windbucket”). Romero’s lawsuit alleged that Windbucket and a third party (not a party to the present appeal) were liable to him for invasion of privacy by intrusion upon seclusion. Romero then sought discovery sanctions against Windbucket for violations of Marshall Rule of Civil Procedure 37. The issues in the case concern whether a subscriber to an Internet-based, multiplayer computer game can state a valid invasion of privacy claim against the game’s publisher, when liability is based on …

Three Questions That Will Make You Rethink The U.S.-China Intellectual Property Debate, 7 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 412 (2008), Peter K. Yu
UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law
Commentators have attributed China’s piracy and counterfeiting problems to the lack of political will on the part of Chinese authorities. They have also cited the many political, social, economic, cultural, judicial, and technological problems that have arisen as a result of the country’s rapid economic transformation and accession to the WTO. This provocative essay advances a third explanation. It argues that the failure to resolve piracy and counterfeiting problems in China can be partly attributed to the lack of political will on the part of U.S. policymakers and the American public to put intellectual property protection at the very top …

Rosetta Stone v. Google (Joint Appendix)
Exhibits from the un-sealed joint appendix for Rosetta Stone Ltd., v. Google Inc., No. 10-2007, on appeal to the 4th Circuit. Issue presented: Under the Lanham Act, does the use of trademarked terms in keyword advertising result in infringement when there is evidence of actual confusion?
E-Contract Doctrine 2.0: Standard Form Contracting In The Age Of Online User Participation , Shmuel I. Becher, Tal Z. Zarsky
E-Contract Doctrine 2.0: Standard Form Contracting In The Age Of Online User Participation , Shmuel I. Becher, Tal Z. Zarsky
Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review
The growing popularity of e-commerce transactions revives the perennial question of consumer contract law: should non-salient provisions of consumer standard form contracts be enforced? With the focus presently on an ex-ante analysis, scholars debate whether consumers can and should read standardized terms at the time of contracting. In today's information age, such a focus might be misguided. The online realm furnishes various tools, so-called "Web 2.0" applications, which encourage the flow of information from experienced to prospective consumers. This Article, therefore, reframes the analysis of online consumer contracts while taking into account this new flow of information. In doing so, …
A New Frontier Or Merely A New Medium - An Analysis Of The Ethics Of Blawgs, Justin Krypel
A New Frontier Or Merely A New Medium - An Analysis Of The Ethics Of Blawgs, Justin Krypel
Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review
The purpose of this Note is to investigate those rules of ethics which interact with attorney blogs, placing a special emphasis on advertising rules. The central finding is that, under the Supreme Court's current First Amendment jurisprudence, attorney blogs (or, more cleverly, "blawgs") are not subject to regulation by the ethics codes of the ABA or the various state bars. Furthermore, if the Supreme Court were to, for some reason, construe blawgs as falling outside of First Amendment protection, evidence suggests that regulating this new medium would be neither desirable nor effective. Part II outlines the historical framework which underlies …
Royalty Rate-Setting For Webcasters: A Royal(Ty) Mess, Amy Duvall
Royalty Rate-Setting For Webcasters: A Royal(Ty) Mess, Amy Duvall
Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review
The Internet is a haven for free expression. Not only are content-based restrictions disfavored, but "[the internet] provides relatively unlimited, low-cost capacity for communication of all kinds." Almost half of all Americans have listened to music online, whether rebroadcasts of terrestrial radio or to find niche music that terrestrial radio simply does not play, and 13 percent tune in regularly. Webcasters provide a unique outlet for new artists; however, if royalty rates are set too high for all but the largest webcasters to stay in business, the variety of music available will be severely restricted. Musical diversity stimulates the generation …
Can We Dicker Online Or Is Traditional Contract Formation Really Dying - Rethinking Traditional Contract Formation For The World Wide Web, Tatiana Melnik
Can We Dicker Online Or Is Traditional Contract Formation Really Dying - Rethinking Traditional Contract Formation For The World Wide Web, Tatiana Melnik
Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review
When most people imagine the process of contract formation, they picture two people sitting down and negotiating, arguing about particular contract provisions and particular contract terminology, and maybe even involving attorneys to draft an "official" version of the contract. Regardless of the specific details people imagine, traditional contract formation generally involves some form of negotiation between two parties where they choose one set of terms over another. In modern society, however, such negotiation happens very rarely. People enter into many contracts on a daily basis, for example, when they purchase goods or services online. Online purchases are governed by computers, …

Network Neutrality And The False Promise Of Zero-Price Regulation, C. Scott Hemphill
Network Neutrality And The False Promise Of Zero-Price Regulation, C. Scott Hemphill
Center for Contract and Economic Organization
This Article examines zero-price regulation, the major distinguishing feature of many modern "network neutrality" proposals. A zero-price rule prohibits a broadband Internet access provider from charging an application or content provider (collectively, "content provider") to send information to consumers. The Article differentiates two access provider strategies thought to justify a zero-price rule. Exclusion is anticompetitive behavior that harms a content provider to favor its rival. Extraction is a toll imposed upon content providers to raise revenue. Neither strategy raises policy concerns that justify implementation of a broad zero-price rule. First, there is no economic exclusion argument that justifies the zero-price …
User-Generated Content And Virtual Worlds, Greg Lastowka
User-Generated Content And Virtual Worlds, Greg Lastowka
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
Many legal commentators have claimed that virtual worlds owe their popularity to their focus on user-generated content and user creativity. While this is true in part and authorial freedom may draw consumers to virtual worlds, user-generated content can also pose risks to virtual world business from both an aesthetic and legal perspective. A significant tension exists between permitting participants to create content freely and building a successful virtual environment. In some instances, user-generated content can overwhelm virtual worlds. The future of user-generated content in virtual worlds is not clear, given the significant practical and legal problems that accompany user-generated content.
