Copyright infringement appeal hearings
Copyright infringement appeal hearings
02/10/2004 02:47 AM
The American Ninth Circuit court has been
listening to arguments about copyright infrigement and
liability for filesharing applications, notably Grokster and Morpheus . A decision
could shape the legal status of
peer-to-peer tools for the near future.
The
discussion has largely been framed in
terms of the landmark 1984
Sony v Betamax case . This is an appeal for an earlier
decision, where Grokster was found not liable for users' infrigements. Counsel for copyright
holders argued that Betamax could be read to allow blame to be
assigned to devices, and ended up
considering Xerox liable for bad copying. Their opponents argued for
substantial noninfringing usage, as per the Betamax decision.

Copyright Infringement
Kazaa To Sue Entertainment Industry For
Copyright Infringement
01/23/2004 02:23 PMIn a move that seems likely to backfire on them partly out of the
audacity of the move, Sharman Networks, the company behind Kazaa, can
now
sue record labels and
Hollywood studios for copyright infringement. We had briefly
mentioned this case
back in
September, but now it's been given permission to move forward.
Sharman claims that the entertainment companies violated copyright law
by using Kazaa Lite (which is not actually associated with Kazaa) to
get on the network and monitor the file trading that was occurring.
At the same time, they claim that those same companies broke the terms
of service of Kazaa by sending threatening instant messages to file
traders, warning them that they were distributing unauthorized music
files. Sharman clearly has a stronger copyright case against the
industry than the industry does against them (in that they're actually
accusing the companies of copyright violation, rather than just
"facilitating" copyright violations) - but, it still seems like a long
shot that could reflect badly on them in their other efforts.

Politicians Don't Mind Copyright
Infringement When It Works For Them
02/12/2004 12:35 PMWhile House and Senate elected officials have made big deals out of
the importance of intellectual property, it hasn't been on the radar
screen of the Bush/Cheney administration... or has it? NBC got angry
that the campaign released an online commercial for the President
using
footage from an interview done on NBC. The campaign insists
they've done nothing wrong. Does that mean they're supporters of
"fair use"? Chances are they've never actually thought about the
issue, and this is yet another case of politicians who would push for
more stringent intellectual property laws, while making sure to ignore
them themselves when convenient.

The
Joint Committee of the
Higher Education and Entertainment Communities issued a
report on filesharing and copyright infringement on college campuses. The group found
that awareness of copyright problems had grown, and many solutions
mounted.
Moreover, looking back over the past year ,
The recording industry has sued more than 3,000 computer users since
September in a campaign to stem file-sharing... So far this year, 185
people at 35 universities were among those snared in the recording
industry's lawsuit campaign, according to the report.

Copyright Cartel Buying Another Federal

Copyright Cartel Buying Another Federal
Anti-Infringement Law
05/27/2004 07:58 AMSince law enforcement has nothing better to do, and since the
victims of copyright infringement -- Hollywood studios and the music
companies -- are obviously so strapped financially, Congress may soon
order the Justice Department to use resources tracking file sharers
and filing lawsuits against them. (Yes, I'm being sarcastic.)
As Declan McCullagh reports,
legislation known as the "Pirate
Act" is moving with light speed through Washington -- getting not
even a hearing in committee before being sent to the full Senate.
Sadly, Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy, who should know better, is part of
this travesty; but he's running for reelection in a state where he
couldn't lose if he tried, and apparently needs more money from Hollywood.
Oh, and once the government files suit -- with huge penalties -- the
copyright cartel companies will still be able to file their own suits.
Nothing like piling on.
I'm not endorsing rampant infringement for profit, the kind of
activity that truly fits the term "piracy," such as the stamping out
thousands of CDs or DVDs in Malaysian and Chinese factories that
deserves to be stamped out, harshly. I'm not endorsing petty
infringement, either, such as downloading songs you would otherwise
have bought in a store. But this kind of legislation, turning the full
force of the government against penny ante infringers, is far over the
top. In times like these, when there are real criminals out there,
it's insane.

an exchange between SCO's CEO and the leading advocate for

Darl McBride published
the first of a promised series of open letters , which describe
SCO's position on intellectual property. McBride argues that the
general public license (
GPL )is essentially unconstitutional. This
widely-read article then elicited a response from Stanford University law
professor Lawrence Lessig , who
replied that GPL is within the constitutional framework of
intellectual property ownership.
