Hello there!
I know long time no hear. I have been so busy working and the time I previously had to update this blog as been next to zero. But I did want to let you guys know that I am co-presenting a very timely and informative Webinar entitled, "Policing and Protecting Copyrights on the Internet." My co-presenter and I will share information on the following:
1. Unprecedented theories of secondary liability that seek to hold banks, credit card companies, advertisers and search engines liable for copyright infringement—even if the underlying infringement is based on user-generated or unrelated third party content.
2. Battles over the meaning of "display" under 17 U.S.C. sec. 106 in the Internet context.
3. Fair use as a doctrine, an affirmative defense or a substantive limit on the scope of a copyright-holder's right to exclude.
4. Technological solutions to copyright infringement and the rise of digital rights management.
I will specifically discuss the Fair Use exception to the Copyright law. I will also discuss Digital Rights Management (DRM) software and open source software as it relates to copyright infringement and protection. I am thrilled to share my knowledge on these pressing issues.
