Here they come again
Labels:

Universal Studios are at it again, this time going after YouTube and MySpace over what Universal believe is infringement of copyright in the use of these sites. I read this, in Melbourne's Age newspaper this morning and it reminded me of a speech by Lawrence Lessig on this very topic. I wonder where this will end up? Obviously everyone should have the right to protect what is theirs, but should we be looking more deeply into this - is this copyright infringement, or is this anti-competitive behaviour? This raises the question that has been won, and lost, before - is there infringement of copyright, in a tool that enables copyright to be infringed?
