Why Patents and Copyrights Matter
"Why do patents and copyrights
matter? What do they protect? What to make of the objections against them? For
instance: that no one is really hurt by violations of copyrights or patents; or
that these rights are obstacles to progress and innovation; or that they’re an
unfair, government-granted privilege or favor?
To explore these issues, I
talked to Professor Adam Mossoff,
who teaches law at George Mason University. Mossoff is an expert on
intellectual property law and policy, who has published extensively in academic
journals and popular outlets, including the Wall
Street Journal, New York Times, and
Politico, among many others. He has testified several times before the Senate
and the House of Representatives."
Issues and developments related to ethics, information, and technologies, examined in the ethics and intellectual property graduate courses I teach at the University of Pittsburgh School of Computing and Information. My Bloomsbury book "Ethics, Information, and Technology" will be published in Summer 2025. Kip Currier, PhD, JD
