Internet Creativity vs. Internet Regulation

Life is organized by technology

But law attempts to ignore technology
FAIL

The root of our problem begins about 5000 years ago...

Writing: an information storage system outside the body.
Independent of space & time

The history of writing is the history of reducing
copying costs.

Wheras printers, booksellers, and other persons, have of late frequently taken the liberty of printing... books, and other writings, without the consent of the authors... to their very great detriment, and too often to the ruin of them and their families: For preventing therefore such practices for the future, and for the encouragement of learned men to compose and write useful books...

But what happened then?

The archdeacon gazed at the gigantic edifice for some time in silence, then extending his right hand, with a sigh, towards the printed book
which lay open on the table, and his left towards the NotreDame, and turning a sad glance from
the book to the church, “Alas”, he said, “this will kill that.”
The Hunchback of NotreDame 1831

It even adapts to new technology
“entirely from his own mental conception, to which he gave visible form”
”useful, new, harmonious, characteristic, and graceful picture.”

But digitalization changed everything
![Page 18: Internet Creativity Vs Internet Regulation](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081401/55989cdd1a28ab40288b4719/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Copies
Cost
Initial cost
First Copy
In a digital environment the cost of copying moves towards zero.
In an Internet environment the cost of copying is shared by the end user
Analogue

I havent written on here for a while but I've taken the time to write this as I think music piracy is having a
dangerous effect on British music…
You don't start out in music with the Ferraris. Instead you get a huge debt from your record company, which you
spend years working your arse off to repay…
I don't think what's out there is perfect. It's stupid that kids can't buy anything on the internet without credit, forcing them to steal Mum's credit card or download
illegally. It's this kind of thing that the record company bosses, artists, broadband providers and government
should be sitting down and discussing.

Main argument today: if copying costs move towards zero then
harsher copyright laws

This argument forgets technology & society
![Page 23: Internet Creativity Vs Internet Regulation](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081401/55989cdd1a28ab40288b4719/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

A funny thing happened on the Jaipur – Delhi Express...
![Page 25: Internet Creativity Vs Internet Regulation](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081401/55989cdd1a28ab40288b4719/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
The disruption occurs when the technology, which is introduced effects the social arrangements
around which we build our lives
![Page 26: Internet Creativity Vs Internet Regulation](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081401/55989cdd1a28ab40288b4719/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Three really crazy ideas...
that WORKED!

Richard Stallman has proved empirically that economic rewards
are not a prerequisite for creation
![Page 29: Internet Creativity Vs Internet Regulation](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081401/55989cdd1a28ab40288b4719/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Jimmy Wales showed that Stallman's ideas could scale
and include a hugely differentiated group

Lawrence Lessig showedthat, given the opportunity, creators share all types of
copyrightable works
![Page 33: Internet Creativity Vs Internet Regulation](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081401/55989cdd1a28ab40288b4719/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
…and then came the rest of us...

Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of
the way the world works. Anything that’s invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty
five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it. Anything invented after you’re thirtyfive is against the
natural order of things.

Free Software Foundation & the GPL LicenseProtects the Four Freedoms

Four Freedoms
The freedom to...
…run the program, for any purpose.
…study how the program works, and adapt it to your needs.
…redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor.
…improve the program, and release your improvements to the public
![Page 54: Internet Creativity Vs Internet Regulation](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081401/55989cdd1a28ab40288b4719/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
If 4 Freedoms lead to innovation,what does copyright law do?

The development of torrent technology is a direct consequence of the law. And now the law is trying
to equate torrents to copyright infringement
![Page 60: Internet Creativity Vs Internet Regulation](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081401/55989cdd1a28ab40288b4719/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
So what is the moral of this tale lecture?
![Page 61: Internet Creativity Vs Internet Regulation](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081401/55989cdd1a28ab40288b4719/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
3. Most of Europe & the United States have made the mistake of almost eliminating access &
anarchy. It will take many years for us to recover.

2. Law does not innovate. Legislators wishing to drive innovation must preserve access to
technology and anarchy
![Page 63: Internet Creativity Vs Internet Regulation](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081401/55989cdd1a28ab40288b4719/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
1. You as lawyers must not fall into the trap of single system life... even if the law encourages
such thinking.
