Duped: The Implications Of The Proliferaiton Of Superfake Luxury Goods And What Consumers May Not Have Considered, Riann Colbert
Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal
The proliferation of "Superfake" luxury goods, which are high-quality counterfeit items nearly indistinguishable from authentic products, poses significant challenges to trademark law, consumer protection, and the broader economy. These items, often sold through e-commerce platforms, not only undermine legitimate businesses but also expose consumers to health risks, support organized crime, and perpetuate environmental harm. The note advocates for enhanced legal frameworks and consumer education to mitigate these issues.

Healing An Unimaginable Loss: How Social Media Platforms Can Help Bereaved Parents Through Adr, Molly Baraban
Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution
This Note will argue that Alternative Dispute Resolution ("ADR") can successfully be utilized to mediate disputes between parents and social media platforms to facilitate account access in certain instances where a minor child has passed away in a manner that warrants answers. This Note will argue that the rise in mediation being used to resolve probate issues and reform of arbitration use amongst social media platforms, coupled with the continued increase of minors using social media, indicates opportunities for settlements between parents and platforms. This Note will then propose a multi-tiered approach, that would first utilize a conciliator who is …

Adapting To Change: Navigating The Evolving Role Of Electronic Resources Librarians, Sam Cabo
Law Faculty Publications
The growing number and intricacy of online services, in addition to dwindling formats like CD-ROMs and print, are ushering in new expectations and opportunities for electronic resources librarians (ERLs). From developing data analysis and management strategies, to automating tasks, managing modern authentication workflows, and navigating the nascent landscape of generative artificial intelligence (AI), ERLs are wearing many hats as they adapt quickly to shifts in technology and the needs of their institutions. In November 2024, the authors conducted an informal survey (which generated 51 responses) of American Association of Law Libraries (AALL) members via several My Communities groups. The authors …

The Doors Of Janus: A Critical Analysis Of The Socio-Technical Forces Eroding Trust In The Rule Of Law, Anuj Puri, Esther Keymolen
Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal
The Rule of Law is neither just a principle nor solely the institutions that embody that principle, a critical aspect of the Rule of Law is its grounding in trust which often gets neglected in the surrounding discourse. When the citizens' trust in the Rule of Law weakens, the Rule of Law becomes fragile. In this article we examine the impact of emerging technologies on the citizens' trust in the Rule of Law. Our analysis is specifcally focused on the effect of systemic disinformation which is likely to worsen with the advent of Generative AI, algorithmic misgovernance, and the digitalization …

"The Gift Of A Golden Voice": Shaping The Right Of Publicity To Protect Performers From A.I. Abuses, Sebastian Saavedra
Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal
The note explores the evolving nature of the right of publicity, a unique area of intellectual property and privacy law that protects individuals' control over their likeness and persona.

The analysis emphasizes the need to protect performers' rights to their public image without undermining established legal frameworks.

Can Commercials Be Art? An Analysis Of Intellectual Property Preawareness In The Barbie Era, Shreya Kalidindi
Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal
The note examines the evolution of advertising, particularly native advertising, and critiques the inadequacy of current regulatory frameworks in addressing its deceptive potential. It highlights how modern advertising practices, such as product placement in films like Barbie, blur the line between commercial speech and artistic expression, challenging the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) ability to protect consumers. The analysis argues that strengthening existing regulations is insufficient and advocates for empowering consumers to make informed decisions, as the legal system struggles to keep pace with innovative advertising strategies.

"Be Thankful I Don't Take It All ('Cause I'M The Taxman)": Music Transactions, Catalog Sales, And Tax Treatment, Hannah M. Bartfield
Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal
This Note examines music catalog transactions from a tax perspective to determine the key considerations, benefits, and consequences of such a transaction, and then addresses why these characteristics are inconsistent with the purpose of copyright law. First, this Note addresses the copyright concepts that govern the music industry in Part I.B. In Part II, royalties are discussed as one method that musicians can rely on to earn revenue from their music, including a summary of how those earnings are taxed. In Part III, these findings will be weighed against similar considerations for the sale of an artist's music catalog, including …

Copyright Doctrine Before The Tribunal Of Science: A Response To Professor Silbey, Mateusz Blaszczyk
Scholarly Works
In an important new Article, titled A Matter of Facts: The Evolution of the Copyright Fact-Exclusion and Its Implications for Disinformation and Democracy, Professor Jessica Silbey argues provocatively that we “‘only” know that facts are excluded from copyright protection because Feist Publications v. Rural Telephone Service “says so.” She argues that both the nature and importance of facts has been underdefined and is in flux, nonetheless tracing it to the foundational cases of United States (U.S.) copyright law, and argues for a stronger exclusion of facts, which are publici juris, and belong in the public domain. This central …

Fintech And Techno-Solutionism, Hilary J. Allen
Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals
Silicon Valley-style technological innovation is ill-suited to addressing complex problems like financial inclusion, concentrated market power, and privacy harms, yet promises abound that “fintech” can fix them. This oversimplified reduction of complex structural problems into technological puzzles is known as “techno-solutionism,” and it poses real dangers for public policy. When we start with the tech industry’s favored tools and then ask how to solve complex problems using those tools – rather than starting by defining the problem to be solved – it can distract policymakers from supporting real, structural solutions. Techno-solutionism can also deter policymakers from interrogating the limitations, and …

Shoot The Messenger: Why Section 230 Does Not Shield Suggestive Content Delivery, Alexander Heinkele
Cardozo Law Review de•novo
Internet companies have frequently relied on Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996 to avoid liability for third-party content hosted on their platforms. However, over time, companies began to take advantage of the broad cover of Section 230 in circumstances outside the statute’s original scope. This Note advocates for a more nuanced interpretation of the statute as it applies to suggestive algorithms and offers a proposal for amending Section 230 to better reflect the modern digital landscape.
