星期六, 8月 4th, 2007

Coyle在他的博文中转述马里兰大学Fred von Lohmann的建议,FBI的标准版权声明应该这样写:

WARNING. Federal law allows citizens to reproduce, distribute, or exhibit portions of copyright motion pictures, video tapes, or video discs under certain circumstances without authorization of the copyright holder. This infringement of copyright is called “Fair use” and is allowed for purposes of criticism, news reporting, teaching, and parody.

警告:联邦法律允许公民在某些特定情况下未经版权持有人许可而复制、发布或展览具有版权的动画、录像带、影碟等资料。这种版权的例外称为”合理使用”,适用于评述、新闻报道、教学以及恶搞。

  • Slashdot | Libraries Say DRM May Harm Their Services # BBC的原文访问不了,只好连接这个摘要 The BBC is reporting that the British Library is concerned about DRM’s effect on its ability to make materials available to the public. Libraries have a legal right to distribute materials under the Fair Use provisions of the copyright law, but DRM systems may block this. Furthermore, they point out that DRM systems don’t automatically switch themselves off when a work goes out of copyright. DRM systems may allow copyright holders to retain control over their material longer than they are legally entitled to. Worse yet, if the software no longer exists to unlock a DRM-protected file, its contents may be lost forever — exactly the thing libraries are intended to prevent.’ We’ve discussed stories like this before.
  • SSRN-Google Book Search: Fair Use, Fair Dealing and the Case for Intermediary Copying by Paul Ganley # google数字图书馆计划的法律问题。值得参考 This article examines the legality of Google’s Library Project under U.S. and U.K. copyright law. The Library Project provides a useful example of the divergence in approach to copyright exceptions in these two jurisdictions. In particular, whilst Google’s plans have generated a great deal of controversy, it at least has an arguable case under U.S. law that its use is fair use. No analogous argument can be made under U.K law. The main purpose of this article is to highlight this distinction and to suggest that U.K copyright law is failing to adequately account for transformations in the mode and manner in which individuals interact with information.




  • E-LIS - Against intellectual property # 比老槐”遵守但不尊重”有过之而无不及 There is a strong case for opposing intellectual property. Among other things, it often retards innovation and exploits Third World peoples. Most of the usual arguments for intellectual property do not hold up under scrutiny. In particular, the metaphor of the marketplace of ideas provides no justification for ownership of ideas. The alternative to intellectual property is that intellectual products not be owned, as in the case of everyday language. Strategies against intellectual property include civil disobedience, promotion of non-owned information, and fostering of a more cooperative society.
  • Columns by PC Magazine: Much Ado over Google Book Search # 一个G拥鼐 Google is grinding through various library collections for every book it can scan, without asking for permission. I, for one, think that’s great. I see that my last book, Online! The Book, is in the collection, but this doesn’t bother me, because I am apparently one of the few out there who has used Google Book Search. I found it anything but a threat to book sales or anything else to do with publishing.

Walter Benjamin opened his 1936 essay, Das Kunstwerk im Zeitalter seiner technischen Reproduzierbarkeit, with the first observation quoted above.
