This is the topic for my seminar on Monday 6 December at 14.30.
There's no worked through paper because I've only just started thinking about the topic - the slides (available here) are more a set of questions to explore in the seminar.

Taking the Copy out of Copyright
The paper for my forthcoming seminar (Wed November 24) is here. Serious copyright scholars are welcome to rip it to shreds now, though I'm only wedded to the basic principles I set out - more work needs to be done on the detail.

The Authority of Law in Cyberspace
My investigation into how best to make law for cyberspace has led me into the murky world of jurisprudence! The sequence was as follows:
1. In practice, states find it very difficult to enforce their laws against non-resident cyberspace actors
2. Cyberspace needs to be a (generally) lawful place if it is to be useful to all of us
3. Thus laws need to be obeyed because they are laws, and not only if there is a real risk of enforcement
4. So why do cyberspace actors obey some laws but not others?
My draft conclusions are at: http://www.box.net/shared/imo5ok0qd6

Thinking Globally
The title for my next seminar on 15 February is "Thinking Globally", in which I examine the extraterritorial reach of national law online, the problems this creates, and what states might do to reduce the problem.
