DRM strategies for technical copy protection regulate the use of content by imposing "compliance" rules on manufacturers, dictating that devices be designed to chaperone the user.

As people around the world increasingly interact with each other in cyberspace it is inevitable that disputes will arise. If the internet is to become a trusted environment for both commerce and content, individuals and organizations must have access to redress systems to resolve their online disputes. In the face-to-face world we rely on the courts to address disagreements, but courts are not well designed to handle online disputes because judicial systems are usually too tied to geography and jurisdiction. Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) is a better solution for many online conflicts because it is effective, efficient, and trans-boundary by nature. As an organization pioneering the creation of online marketplaces eBay has long acknowledged the need for effective online redress, and that is why eBay and PayPal have invested heavily in ODR processes and partnerships. The work done by eBay in this area offers a blueprint for how other institutions, especially public institutions, can provide redress systems as

In the controversy over file sharing the perspective of music makers is often overlooked. Loudest are the voices of copyright holders and industry representatives, their lawyers and politicians. For the vast majority of musicians, however, the current regime is neither just nor practical. Its inherent contradictions have been starkly revealed by digital technology but those contradictions have been there all along. This talk will bring the perspective of the music maker (inclusive of musicians, composers, sound engineers and instrument builders) to a discussion of three crucial questions: 1. Public Domain, traditional music and the protection of music composed by no one., 2. the abolition of copyright and its replacement by accurate credit and just compensation, 3. internet downloading, audience building and the creation of value.

The breadth of issues attendant to regulating and addressing hate speech on the Internet is seen by considering a number of questions. Should universities ban hate speech on their networks? Should libraries install filters to protect children? Should your Internet Service Provider remove harmful posts? These and other thought-provoking subjects will be discussed, with a unique opportunity to ask questions of two experts in this area.

What if copyright really isn't about copying at all? What happens to the concept of copyright if you take the "copy" out of it? What you're left with is particular forms of control over the distribution of information.
