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.

Kazaa To Sue Entertainment Industry For
Copyright Infringement

Kazaa To Sue Entertainment Industry For
Copyright Infringement 01/23/2004 02:23 PM
In 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.

Infringement When It Works For Them 02/12/2004 12:35 PM
While 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.

Copyright Cartel Buying Another Federal
Anti-Infringement Law 05/27/2004 07:58 AM

Since 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.

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.

After some weeks of advance notice , the film industry's lobbying group has launched lawsuits against hundred of alleged copyright infringers.

One lawsuit, obtained by The Associated Press, targets 18 individuals and was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri in St. Louis.

Other lawsuits are believed to have been filed in New York, Philadelphia and other areas with large concentrations of high-speed Internet customers. Such connections are required to download the massive movie files.

Convicted Criminal Says His Name Is
Copyrighted, Sues Court For Infringement 12/09/2003 07:32 PM
Not that this guy has much of a case, but if you want an example of just how screwy copyright law is, take a look at this case. A prison inmate in Missouri who was convicted of mail fraud is trying to sue the judge in his case for copyright infringement - claiming that he owns the copyright on his name. He's demanding $33 million - $500,000 for each time the name is mentioned in court documents. Amusingly, the newspaper article does not name the guy. Perhaps they're afraid of a lawsuit, too? Of course, sending out bogus lawsuits against the federal government probably isn't such a good idea. They're countersuing him for making false claims. He's also in trouble because he didn't actually file the legal documents to sue, but made up fake ones. Of course, while you may scoff at the claim that this guy has a copyright on his name, it may not be that far-fetched, since the Supreme Court has now said that Ros a Parks can sue the band Outkast for using her name in a song.
