Law - "Cyberlaw Cases: The Top Ten Pending Cyberlaw Cases"
This is a good idea *, a new blog designed to follow ten cases: 1. The Google Books Settlement; 2. The NSA Warrantless Wiretapping Cases; 3. The Future of Method Patentability; 4. A Billion Dollar Test of the DMCA Safe Harbors; 5. Is the FCC Authorized to Promote Net Neutrality? 6. The File Sharing Trials; 7. The Copy Ownership Cases; 8. The AdWords Cases; 9. Intermediate Copying to Extract Information; and 10. State Efforts to Regulate the Internet. The ILB has been following several of these cases, particularly #1 and #10.
From a UC Berkeley News release:
Two University of California, Berkeley, professors are teaming up with two colleagues to launch "Cyberlaw Cases," a blog covering what they consider the top 10 most important pending U.S. legal cases involving issues that impact the Internet, databases and software programs._______
*Although I think the concept of following these ten cases is great, I do have some questions about using a blog format for this; perhaps a Wiki would work better. Time will tell. The other concern is how frequently will it be updated. Currently it appears not to have been updated since the August 31st rollout.
