The Internet's rapid growth—and the globalization and explosion of information that have accompanied this growth—has greatly changed the way intellectual property is policed and protected. As cybercases add new dimensions to the laws of trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, and patents, attorneys need to understand how the complex issues of network-based technologies relate to the traditional areas of intellectual property practice. Intellectual Property Law in Cyberspace, Second Edition, co-published with the American Intellectual Property Law Association, offers the most up-to-date information on this cutting-edge area of law, with discussion of such important topics as:
- How the domain name system works, the latest on dispute resolution policies, and new registration options—plus step-by-step instructions on registering domain names under various registration proposals
- Administrative dispute resolution policies proposed and implemented by domain name registrars—and how to protect registrations from challenges
- The application of trademark law to Internet concepts such as metatags, hyperlinking, framing, and spamming
The Second Edition has been revised and updated to include new developments since the publication of the first edition more than a decade ago and offers fresh perspective on the unique issues related to intellectual property law in cyberspace. The treatise provides important insight on using and protecting copyrighted and trademarked works on the Internet and contains:
- An in-depth discussion of protecting content online, including trade secrets
- An examination of new wrinkles in legal technology, such as the intellectual property issues raised by e-mail, links, frames, and online search tools
- Updated analyses of jurisdictional issues and the Internet
Plus, the treatise contains an entirely new chapter devoted to the proliferating legal issues surrounding online gaming and virtual property, two hot-button issues for practitioners.
