Conclusion
There are several initial low-cost steps you can take to protect your ideas and inventions. The United States are "first-to-invent" countries, not "first to file". You can legally do this for just a few cents. So why wait?

Definition of a Trade Secret Must derive economic value from
not being widely known (competitive edge) Also: can’t be easy for someone to
legally recreate Owner must take action to protect
its secrecy Not registered in any way

Software Piracy What is Software Piracy
Illegal duplication and distribution of software packages and applications
Violates intellectual property laws, license agreements, copyright laws
Illegal, regardless of the severity, frequency, motivation, profit

Software Piracy Piracy Classifications
End User Piracy Reseller Piracy Software Counterfeiting Internet Piracy
Classified by common motivation and method

Software Piracy Classifications
End User Piracy, “Soft Lifting” Distributing a single license among many
systems and, or, users Common in schools, universities,
business, colleagues Motivations
Lack of education, enforcement
![Page 33: Group 3 – Intellectual Property Farshid Firouzeh Syed Mohammed Logan Everett Lee Seversky Leonard Wong Mark Bojdak](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d405503460f94a1abcc/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Software Piracy Classifications
Reseller Piracy, “Hard Disk Loading” Common among discount computer resellers
Bargain basement computer discount stores Computer shows Internet stores selling “bare bone” systems
Increases value of system for little or no additional cost to the seller
Motivations Large competition between discount retailers Lack of enforcement
![Page 34: Group 3 – Intellectual Property Farshid Firouzeh Syed Mohammed Logan Everett Lee Seversky Leonard Wong Mark Bojdak](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d405503460f94a1abcc/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Software Piracy Classifications
Software Counterfeiting World wide counterfeiting groups Organized crime syndicates Professional operation requiring expensive
duplication machines Distribute material around the world Reproduction costs are cheap. Profits are large. Motivated by money, often used to fund other
illegal activities Most popular worldwide and most damaging
![Page 35: Group 3 – Intellectual Property Farshid Firouzeh Syed Mohammed Logan Everett Lee Seversky Leonard Wong Mark Bojdak](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d405503460f94a1abcc/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Software Piracy Classifications
Internet Piracy General availability of high speed Internet connections
increases potential number of users engaging in piracy “Casual pirate”, any user browsing and using illegal
software from the web Large scale organized “warez” groups
Close knit group distributing illegal software among elite House illegal software in the hundreds of terabytes Drink or Die
Easy to distribute and gain access to pirated material Motivations
Group / personal satisfaction Lack of enforcement

Software Piracy Impact of Piracy
$70 billion, software revenue worldwide $29 billion, projected losses from piracy Asia highest percentage of piracy, 92% United States, 22%, but represents largest revenue loss.
Measuring Impact Many argue losses from piracy are much less Projections do not reflect if the pirated software would
have been purchased legally In location such as Asia, piracy may even expand user
base for large companies such as Microsoft Hurts smaller companies Hurts software market, less diversity and innovation

Software Piracy Combating Piracy
Technology Product Activation, Microsoft is expanding Digital Rights Management Close integration with hardware and Operating System
Education Increase awareness Teach users about their rights and intellectual property rights
Watchdog Groups Business Software Alliance Independent groups monitoring business / Internet Work with law enforcement
Provide choice, add extras to legal software at reasonable prices
![Page 38: Group 3 – Intellectual Property Farshid Firouzeh Syed Mohammed Logan Everett Lee Seversky Leonard Wong Mark Bojdak](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d405503460f94a1abcc/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Software Piracy The Future for Software and Piracy
A Business Model Change Move to offering services instead of software Microsoft looking to lease their software Full control over how, where, and by whom the
software is used Free Software movement
Free and Open Source software provides a free alternative offering equal and or superior choices
Removes money, driving factor for piracy Still licensing issues
A software market that minimizes the need and demand for software piracy
![Page 39: Group 3 – Intellectual Property Farshid Firouzeh Syed Mohammed Logan Everett Lee Seversky Leonard Wong Mark Bojdak](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d405503460f94a1abcc/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Software Licenses Provide terms designed by developers Expiration date of software Restrictions:
Copies Distribution Sublicense, rent, lease or transfers Reverse engineering Removal of copyright, product ID, product
restrictions Copying documentation
![Page 41: Group 3 – Intellectual Property Farshid Firouzeh Syed Mohammed Logan Everett Lee Seversky Leonard Wong Mark Bojdak](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d405503460f94a1abcc/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Software Licenses Determines Ownership
You bought the right to USE the software
You don’t have any “holdings” in the software or company
Warranty Information User usually assumes all risks in using
the software
![Page 42: Group 3 – Intellectual Property Farshid Firouzeh Syed Mohammed Logan Everett Lee Seversky Leonard Wong Mark Bojdak](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d405503460f94a1abcc/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Software Licenses Developers way to cover themselves
You get a seizure? Too bad! Developers way to protect their work
Often vague terms open to interpret in court, covers the grey areas
“file sharing” Making copies as a “backup” Installing a copy in the same household

Software Licenses READ YOUR LICENSE
AGREEMENTS! You may be exposing yourself
Company A may sneak in terms to: Exploit your personal information Install 3rd party software Gain rights to work you produce using their

Patents Properties of a Patentable work:
Be Statutory Cannot be mere compilation of information
Be New Cannot be public knowledge to begin with Cannot be something that was published for a year Cannot be something marketed to the public for a year
Be Useful Be able to perform its intended function Function must be meaningful
Be Non-obvious If derived from a previous art, it should not be derivable
by “a person of ordinary skill”
![Page 45: Group 3 – Intellectual Property Farshid Firouzeh Syed Mohammed Logan Everett Lee Seversky Leonard Wong Mark Bojdak](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d405503460f94a1abcc/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Software Patents Software was not patentable until 1981
Software was not considered statutory A computation was a function of the machine
(computer) despite its complexity Programs were viewed as mathematical algorithms, not
machines or processes 1981 case of Diamond v. Diehr
Invented new method to cure rubber Application to patent the method, NOT the computer
program Involved a computer to calculate heating times for the
rubber Patent was granted to the software that controlled the
timing

Software Patents 1996 (most recent) revision:
Clarified what was “not merely a mathematical algorithm”
Invention with significant post solution activity The program used to time the heating of rubber
Invention with significant pre-computer process
Program that used and manipulated real world values
Manipulation of seismic data or electrocardiograph data etc.

Software Patents Provides proof of a genuine unique
idea/invention Microsoft Vs. Stac Electronics
$120 Million settlement against MS Data compression algorithm

Software Patents and Licenses Important in keeping the playing
grounds fair Who gets credit for the idea? Is this an original idea or a duplicate?
Provides terms to adhere by What is acceptable use? What rights are you entitled to as a
user?

Software Patents and Licenses Rules, laws and definitions change
as rapidly as the technology does It is important to keep up to date with
major changes in policy
