Intellectual Property Laws bad for business
The NYTimes has a story called "Report Raises Questions About Fighting Online
Piracy" that talks about how the stringent enforcement of current
Intellectual Property laws (see: RIAA) may acutally be bad for business. It's
the not EFF or FSF saying this, it's professors at Harvard Business School
and Cardozo Law School. The professors say, "The ideas of copy-left, or of a
more liberal regime of copyright, are receiving wider and wider support, It's
no longer a wacky idea cloistered in the ivory tower; it's become a more
mainstream idea that we need a different kind of copyright regime to support
the wide range of activities in cyberspace." and "Bits are not the same as
atoms. We need to reframe the legal discussion to treat the differences of
bits and atoms in a more thoughtful way.
