"We are legal"

"We're giving them the street." So the police officer said say as my daughter and I arrived at Central Square in Cambridge at11:30 this evening. The police pulled back the restraining fences and the crowd packed Massachusetts Ave. solid where we watched couples enter the Town Hall — the first same-sex couples in America to be issued marriage licenses fully legal according to state law. (Oh, stop your quibbling! We're the first state to make it legal and I'm going to enjoy that.) WOOHOO! The crowd was enormous. We were crammed together from the street all the way up the...

Streaming media patent provokes pain.

I got excited when I saw Marc Canter's post about how to add a SoundBlox to your site, as I think it might be cool to add one to my Ear Reverends music site. Then, I saw this article on streamingmedia.com, Patently Absurd? Streaming Users face Acacia Patent Fight. Ouch!

Still excited, but ouch!!!! (Coincidentally, this morning, I started reading The Future of Ideas, by Lawrence Lessig, which I know discusses these kinds of patent = ouch!! situations.)

[the iCite net development blog]

This media streaming patent is nothing compared to the copyrights laws in this country. I own all of the music I have available in my jukebox (available in my left hand gutter - created by SoundBlox.)  I've actually bought multiple copies of many of those classics and reggae hits.

But is it legal for me to be offering up those tunes for you to listen to - on my blog?

I don't know - you tell me.

The intersection of photography and the law has always interested me. I just got the strangest note from a museum, reading me the riot act over a few photos I posted online that I took of their collection. I explained I wasn't selling my photos on my personal site and they eventually called off the hounds, but I'm still taken aback whenever I go somewhere with fine print on the tickets that lets you know commercial photography is a strict no-no.

Any lawyers in the audience care to tell me why these things are enforceable? I can see how taking a photo of a painting, then making lots of prints and selling it would be harming the museum (that might have prints for sale in the gift shop). But taking a photograph of an object within the museum, or a strange view of a sculpture there, how does that harm the museum aside from them merely wanting a financial cut of the action? Is it legal for them to demand you can't sell a photo if you are at a private, non-profit museum? How about at a public one?

Legal Downloads, Eh?


Legal Downloads, Eh? 04/09/2004 04:05 PM
It’s all over the news that a Canadian judge has ruled that posting copyrighted works on a P2P network is not against the law. (I have no idea how long-lived that URI will be, Canadian newspapers are not very careful about their web-space). I wonder if the ruling extends to the Web? I would just totally love if it I could post the occasional excellent piece of music here, and I bet it would drive business to the artists and their published works; and I’d love it if some of the other people whom I’ve gotten close to via their writing were able to share some of their faves with me, too. Go, Judge Finckenstein!

Spam Now Legal In The US


Spam Now Legal In The US 12/16/2003 01:47 PM
As expected, President Bush signed the so-called "CAN SPAM" bill into law today, effectively legalizing spam. What the law does is make sure that anyone now has the right to spam you legitimately, so long as they provide contact information and a way to opt-out. This means, the floodgates will open as all those out-of-work telemarketers now have a new job: spamming you. Wasn't the law supposed to stop spam? Well, the one anti-spam idea in the bill is that it bans people from faking headers for the sake of spamming - which would make a difference if spammers actually cared about the law. They've shown already that they're not too concerned, and thanks to their ability to fake headers and route their spam through many different computers, it will be very difficult to track them down. So, now we'll be getting much more "legitimate" spam, and just as much, if not more, fraudulent spam. Why is this a good law again?

Robolympics Legal Update


Robolympics Legal Update 12/16/2003 11:17 AM
A new Wired News article sheds more light on the United States Olympic Committee's legal attack on the Robolympics event. We first reported on the legal problems in a story last month. Since that time, David Calkins has filed a response saying that Robolympics is not an athletic event. Since US law appears to grant the USOC control over the term "Olympic" only for athletic events, this will likely become the legal center of the debate. The bloated USOC board has become widely criticized for other misconduct and is currently being scrutinized by federal investigators. Previous targets of USOC include the Deaf Olympics, the Special Olympics, the World Senior Olympics, and the Gay Olympics. Oddly, the USOC allowed the Rat Olympics to continue for 28 years before attacking them - perhaps they feel a special allegiance to their own kind? If you'd like to help the good guys, make a donation to the Robolympics legal defense fund or email the USOC and let them know what you think of them.

bluetooth.jpgThe Bluetooth SIG, the group that controls the standards that define the short-range radio networking technology has announced a proposal for a new version of Bluetooth that offers data rates almost 3 times as fast as the previous version. Called Bluetooth EDR (for Enhanced Data Rate), the new specification claims data rates of up to 2.1Mbps and remains backward-compatible with the original Bluetooth spec. No word, however, if the enhanced data rate will causes a proportionate decrease in range, not unlike 802.11g compares to 802.11b.
