Michael B. Arthur, Forbes; Five Lessons From The Toy Wars: How Intellectual Property Laws Can Restrict Your Career Mobility
"Orly Lobel’s new book You Don’t Own Me
recounts the knock-down, drag-out and still unfinished "toy wars"
between Mattel, distributor of Barbie dolls, and nearby rival MGA
Entertainment, distributor of the Bratz collection. The book shows how
those wars “challenge the right and freedom to leave jobs, compete with
incumbent companies, control ideas and innovate.” What Lobel calls "the
criminalization of employment mobility" is a serious problem, and this
article offers some first steps to protect yourself from its grasp."
Issues and developments related to IP, AI, and OM, examined in the IP and tech ethics graduate courses I teach at the University of Pittsburgh School of Computing and Information. My Bloomsbury book "Ethics, Information, and Technology", coming in Summer 2025, includes major chapters on IP, AI, OM, and other emerging technologies (IoT, drones, robots, autonomous vehicles, VR/AR).
