In a world where artificial intelligence can replicate a person’s voice or face in seconds, Denmark is stepping forward with a groundbreaking proposal: a copyright law that grants every citizen ownership of their own likeness.
If passed, this law would mean no one — not even AI companies — could legally use your face, voice, or body data without consent. The move comes amid growing global concerns about deepfakes, where digital replicas of real people are used in scams, misinformation, and even political manipulation.
Recent court rulings have started to define the legal boundaries for AI training and the intellectual property rights of the creative industries. The rulings have raised the question of whether a balance can be struck between the needs of the two sectors.

When a state appeals court hands down opinions contrary to federal law all but overturning a landmark SCOTUS Indigenous rights case wherein they misname key Indigenous rights SCOTUS cases and cant even get the names of all the lawyers in the case straight, I think that says a lot
NEW: In a major escalation in the fight between Trump and Perkins Coie, the firm has retained Williams & Connolly -- which has some of the most aggressive and fiercest litigators in the country -- to represent it.
