[ox] Intellectual Property Laws bad for business



Gerade bei Slashdot gefunden:

fyi:
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.
