Paul Detrick, Reason; Hospital Technicians Ignore Copyright Law to Fight COVID-19
"A right-to-repair movement has been fighting to change federal copyright law—or to pass state-level laws that let people fix their own devices. But medical device companies fought back with letters to lawmakers, saying right-to-repair laws could endanger the lives of patients if devices were fixed improperly by untrained personnel."
Issues and developments related to Intellectual Property [e.g. Copyright, Fair Use, Patents, Trademarks, Trade Secrets), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Open Movements (e.g. Open Access, Open Data, Open Educational Resources (OER), Indigenous Knowledge (IK)], 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
