Students: Hear Daniel D’Amico live at the Liberty and Society Seminar this summer – lrnlbty.co Prof. Daniel D’Amico discusses several arguments for and against government enforcement of intellectual property, including trademarks, patents, and copyrights. He explores both moral arguments (deontological) and cost benefit arguments (consequential), dedicating most of his time to consequential arguments. He finds that, in general, intellectual property is difficult to enforce and is inherently an anti-rival good. As a result, he finds no compelling case for government established intellectual property law. Watch more videos: lrnlbty.co

ranscript follows. Greetings, world. We are Anonymous. We are here to reveal to you an arcane legal trick, which will be used to take away your freedom starting in June 2012. Your governments have been secretly negotiating the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement or ACTA as it is known. The title is misleading. The true goal of ACTA is to crush the internet, as we know it, and to take away your freedom. We and other good people of this Earth have been pointing out a major problem with ACTA. The text of the agreement is extremely vague and can be interpreted in many ways. If read one way, ACTA does not endanger your freedom. If read another way, ACTA is the worst thing that has ever happened and will be used to take away your freedom and to crush the internet as we know it. Supporters of ACTA are saying that each country, which ratifies ACTA, will choose their own interpretation. This is the biggest lie ever told. Just like any other international agreement ACTA must be interpreted according to the Vienna Convention of 1969. Article 32 of the Vienna Convention says that if any part of a treaty is ambiguous it must be interpreted based on documents produced during the drafting and negotiations phase of the agreement. For Acta these documents are classified and have never been made available to the public through official sources. Such secrecy has never surrounded any other global treaty in modern times. In essence the true meaning of ACTA is being kept secret even from the …
The EU has suspended the ratification of a controversial anti computer piracy agreement, questioning its legality. It will now be investigated to see if the document is compatible with human rights and freedoms. Known as ACTA, the bill has been heavily criticised by web freedom activists, sparking multiple protests across Europe. If passed, the legislation will allow customs officers at airports to examine all devices that may contain pirated data. The authorities will also gain unlimited access to private digital information. So far, 22 EU countries have signed up to the deal which was negotiated in secret. Bob Beschizza, from the online magazine and blog Boing Boing believes the law punishes those who use sources legally, while failing to battle online piracy.
