Katie Collins, CNet; Article 13: Europe's hotly debated revamp of copyright law, explained
"The European Union is trying to pass a hotly
debated law on copyright. The European Copyright Directive has been two
years in the making, and on June 20, the European Parliament's legal
affairs committee voted to approve the draft legislation.
The
vote happened less than a month after Europe's last big piece of
internet-related legislation -- the General Data Privacy Regulation (GDPR) -- kicked in.
Both
the Copyright Directive and GDPR could dramatically impact and change
things about the internet as we know it. But they also differ
significantly, not just in scope, but also in how they're viewed and
received by the world beyond Brussels."
Issues and developments related to Intellectual Property (e.g. Copyright, Fair Use, Patents, Trademarks, Trade Secrets) and Open Movements (e.g. Open Access, Open Data, Open Educational Resources (OER)), examined in the "Intellectual Property and Open Movements" and "Ethics of Data, Information, and Emerging Technologies" graduate courses I teach at the University of Pittsburgh School of Computing and Information. -- Kip Currier, PhD, JD
