Copyright

This paper,”Infringement Nation: Copyright Reform and the Law/Norm Gap” by John Tehranian discusses the problem with copyright especially in light of the pervasive use of the Internet. The premise:

As the rapid pace of technological change continues to force a reconsideration of the vitality of our intellectual property regime, it is tempting indeed to cite the
“communications revolution” of our time—the Internet—as disrupting to the delicate balance struck by pre-digital copyright laws between the rights of owners and users of creative works.

Definitely worth read.
