I suggested that prosecutors and the Meiers think about a deal with Drew in which she waives her right to appeal. Many people wrote in to say no, along these lines: Drew bullied and by the end of the day a 13 year old girl...

I'm passing along Ray Beckerman's post on two recent cases that show the RIAA's attempt to use a "making available" theory to show copyright infringement is clearly on the way out.

In close First Amendment case, Virginia court upholds spammer conviction

What do geeks hate more than free speech restrictions? Spammers! Thus, anti-spam laws are an interesting collision. Spamming is clearly speech -- albeit commercial speech. So are antispam laws constitutional? The Virginia Supreme Court took that matter up in the case of Jeremy Jaynes, a particularly obnoxious...

SCO vs. IBM: clarity as push approaches shove

SCO vs. IBM: clarity as push approaches shoveEstoppelMurph, you misunderstand the key point of the "statute of limitations" issue. If AT&T had, indeed, intended that the contract prohibited IBM from publicly disclosing its own inventions (e.g. RCU), then they had the opportunity fifteen years ago to tell IBM not...

Judge changes her mind: Tenenbaum is liable
