Authoritarian regimes are pushing a binding global treaty for governments to control the internet. We've stopped threats like this before, and we can again -- but only with a massive global outcry in the next 2 days.

Fair Use For Me, But Not For Thee | Techdirt. | The Benefits of Sharing | Scoop.it

Here's a wacky one. Blogger Mark Reinhardt, who blogs about Idaho, had written a blog post critical of local TV station KTVB and its news reporting. With it, he included a YouTube clip of the reporting in question, along with some of his own commentary about why the reporting was "one sided journalism." While the disclaimer he posted with it, which implied that he believed the use was fair use, was legally meaningless (and slightly incorrect), using a news clip and commenting on it is still a classic form of fair use. Either way, KTVB claimed the video and had YouTube take it down, saying it was infringing. Whether or not it was actually infringing is actually not a huge part of the issue, because what happened next was interesting.

La ciencia impregna todos los aspectos de nuestra vida, seamos o no conscientes de ello, y desempeñará un papel fundamental en la definición de nuestro futuro.

Apple levels its latest patent complaints at Samsung’s Galaxy S4

Apple levels its latest patent complaints at Samsung’s Galaxy S4 | The Benefits of Sharing | Scoop.it

New motion suggests Samsung's version of Google Now is a Siri impostor.

Apple is yet again pursuing patent infringement claims against Samsung (and Samsung is counter-suing Apple). The pair's newest patent battle is happening in the US District Court of Northern California and it's a similar lawsuit to the infringement case heard last year that resulted in a $1.05 billion verdict in favor of Apple. This time around, however, Apple and Samsung are pursuing claims against the latest generation of products.

Paris, 23 May 2013 — In a plenary vote, the European Parliament just adopted a mandate to the European Commission explicitly allowing it to “include strong protection of intellectual property rights (IPR)” in the proposed EU-US trade agreement negociations, the “Trans-Atlantic Free Trade Agreement” (TAFTA), also know as “Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership” (TTIP).

Paris, 22 May 2013 — When you are browsing the web, can you say who collects information about you, what is the nature of that information and who may access it? Can you control who may know what about you? The European Commission intended to give you the power to do so, but European Parliament may vote otherwise, under pressure by corporate lobbies.
