Taking the Copy Out of Copyright

What this episode covers

What if copyright really isn't about copying at all? What happens to the concept of copyright if you take the "copy" out of it? What you're left with is particular forms of control over the distribution of information. And, perhaps, a better way of understanding and reconciling other forms of information law such as freedom of the press and telecommunications regulation. About the Speaker: Ernest Miller pursues research and writing on cyberlaw, intellectual property, and First Amendment issues. Mr. Miller attended the U.S. Naval Academy before attending Yale Law School, where he was president and co-founder of the Law and Technology Society, and founded the technology law and policy news site LawMeme.
