Calo R: Law and Technology

Law and Technology

A Methodical Approach

<ul><li>INTRODUCTION</li> <li>CHAPTER ONE: TECHNOLOGY AS SOCIAL FACT</li> <li>CHAPTER TWO: THE SCALE AND THE REACTOR</li> <li>CHAPTER THREE: THOUGH THIS BE MADNESS</li> <li>CHAPTER FOUR: APPLICATION</li> <li>CONCLUSION</li> </ul>

This book explores the relationship between copyright law, online anonymity, and creative user-generated content (CUGC). Presenting original empirical findings, the book evaluates the co-existence of copyright law and normative systems regulating a CUGC landscape made up of artists, photographers, and writers, and makes novel recommendations for copyright reform. It takes a multi-jurisdictional approach across Anglo-American and EU legal systems, using the UK, USA, and Germany as representative jurisdictions for legal analysis. Qualitative findings are drawn from creators and communities on Reddit and 4chan. Copyright subsists in much CUGC, but pervasive anonymity makes it difficult for the law to regulate it effectively. Simultaneously, anonymity offers creative benefits in a way that highlights flaws in traditional justifications of copyright. Comparisons between community norms and copyright law identify practical differences but also fundamental compatibilities in terms of ownership expectations. However, the simultaneous existence of legal and normative enforcement mechanisms complicates matters for creators and potential users, with negative implications for creativity and copyright law. While existing reform efforts have made suggestions to create a UGC exception, these overlook and undermine the role of CUGC creators as copyright holders. This can be addressed through the consideration of a framework of supplementary CUGC guidelines when developing such reforms. This valuable resource for researchers and students provides a distinct perspective in framing CUGC creators as copyright holders, examining online anonymity as a pivotal factor influencing regulation.

States have expressed concern about shareholders claiming before international tribunals for harm to company assets. Proposals are being discussed to reform investment arbitration to deal with this problem and this book proposes appropriate solutions without the need for substantial reforms or the complete abandonment of investment arbitration.

This open access book critically analyses a wide range of consumer law issues generated or exacerbated by the Internet of Things. The Internet of Things challenges many of the dichotomies which have shaped current laws: goods-services, hardware-software, tangible-intangible, online-offline. The book focuses on 4 specific challenges: things-as-service, liability, bricking of physical devices through software control, and the potential for enhanced personalisation, especially for digital assistants. The chapters analyse specific applications such as smart homes, connected cars, and consumer wearables with a view to providing innovative solutions to the new challenges posed by the Internet of Things, and to steer the development of the Internet of Things in a fairer direction. As well as offering an important analysis of the potential for smart consumer laws in the Internet of Things, the book also provides important insights into the growing divergence between Germany's and the UK's consumer laws since Brexit. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by UKRI (Arts and Humanities Research Council) and the German Research Foundation (DFG).

Gentile Food Bans: Halakhah and the Fear of Intermarriage challenges long-standing rabbinic and scholarly assumptions about the origins of dietary restrictions in Jewish law.Re-examining halakhic texts across centuries, this book argues that the early prohibitions against consuming Gentile bread and certain cooked foods were originally rooted in concerns over forbidden ingredients - not intermarriage. It was only later, in Babylonia, that the rationale of preventing intermarriage, mišum ¿atnut (mishum hatnut), was introduced, particularly regarding Gentile bread, even when prepared under rabbinic supervision. Drawing on a wide range of sources - including biblical texts, Second Temple writings, tannaitic literature, and the Palestinian Talmud - this study shows that intermarriage was not a major societal concern or halakhic foundation in ¿Ere¿ Israel, whereas the Babylonian context likely prompted the shift in rationale. The book presents a compelling socio-historical argument for how evolving communal realities shaped halakhic interpretation and enforcement.This work will appeal to scholars and students of Jewish studies, halakhah, rabbinics, and ancient Near Eastern history, as well as anyone interested in how legal traditions adapt to shifting cultural landscapes. It offers a fresh and rigorously documented perspective on the intersection of food, law, and identity in Jewish history.

This open access book investigates the role played by copyright on the digitisation of cultural heritage from three angles: the theoretical differences between cultural property law and copyright; a comparative analysis of the EU, UK, and US; and analysis of current practices and concerns, based on empirical research. As heritage digitisation projects become increasingly common for purposes such as preservation and access, the impact of copyright is also becoming more problematic. In order to provide a full and current picture of the copyright problem, the book first introduces the reader to the debates on the scope and ownership of cultural heritage and provides an overview of the copyright implications of the digitisation process and newer uses, including 2D and 3D scanning; virtual and augmented reality; text and data mining; and artificial intelligence. The author then divides the main critical analysis into three parts, referred to as the 'clashes with copyright'. The first, clash in theory, lies between cultural property law and copyright justification theories. The second clash is in the different legal approaches to digitising in-copyright, public domain, orphan, out-of-commerce and unpublished works in the chosen jurisdictions, focusing on the relevant rights and defences. The third clash is in the interests of stakeholders, based on public reactions to existing projects and cases, supported by interviews with heritage professionals engaging in digitisation. By placing itself in this particular intersection of law, heritage, and technology, the book will be of interest to both intellectual property academics and cultural heritage professionals. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

Clashes with Copyright Law

Digitising Cultural Heritage

Disclosure laws aim to empower individuals to make better decisions, yet in practice they often overwhelm readers with excessive and inaccessible information. Disclosure Laws in the Digital Era explains why traditional regulatory approaches fall short and how technological advances offer new opportunities to evaluate and improve disclosure quality. Through a comprehensive study of the U.S. franchise disclosure regime, Uri Benoliel demonstrates how AI and big data standards can assess whether disclosures genuinely help prospective franchisees understand key risks. Benoliel proposes a forward-looking framework that integrates technology into disclosure design, offering more reliable and scalable methods for regulatory oversight. Combining doctrinal analysis, empirical insights, and policy recommendations, the book offers valuable insights for scholars of disclosure, franchising, consumer protection, and contract law, as well as for policymakers, regulators, and legal practitioners seeking to strengthen transparency and informed decision-making in the digital era.

This book is the first investigation of the relationship between EU digital sovereignty and sustainability strategies. It maps the ambitions and limitations of EU digital strategic autonomy and explores the structural challenges underlying its relationship with its green transition objectives in the context of the ongoing wars in neighbouring European countries and the consequent tensions in the EU energy sector. The EU is racing to achieve technological independence from third countries and foreign multinational companies to protect its digital sovereignty and preserve its fundamental rights. In the EU, digitalisation and the green transformation are seen as twin transitions. Yet, EU digital sovereignty strategies have a significant environmental cost. Reaching a status of strategic autonomy of the EU at the level of digital infrastructures, products, services and data implies higher energy consumption and exploitation of natural resources. Moreover, the geopolitical tensions following the Russian invasion of Ukraine have provoked an unprecedented energy crisis, which is affecting EU economies and impacting objectives of the twin transitions. The book offers an interdisciplinary analysis of the major EU regulatory and policy instruments in this field, providing an invaluable guide for academics, practitioners, and policymakers navigating the complex issues of preserving digital sovereignty and addressing climate change in times of war and energy crisis.

Digital Sovereignty and the Green Transition

This open access book provides a Mediterranean perspective on digital societies, focusing on core issues such as cultural heritage, tourism, smart city development, migration, humanitarian action management, maritime security, health data sharing, and the Mediterranean data space. The Mediterranean Sea is not just a geographical place; it is a crossroads of cultures, economies, and political trends which are now intertwined with data-driven technologies. Neither a national nor an EU versus non-EU perspective can fully grasp the variety and complexity of the resulting space and legal issues. This book takes a multidisciplinary approach to Mediterranean digital societies by analysing the legal, societal, and technical dimensions of the Mediterranean digital environment, with contributions by scholars and experts in this area. The book is a key resource for scholars who want to better understand these under-explored topics and do so from a Mediterranean, rather than an EU-centric perspective. It also supports policy makers designing their digital strategies - both sectoral and general - in the Mediterranean region, and considering the impact of data-driven technologies on society and their geo-political dimension. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.
