fun first: @margobagley cited my tweet about @JanewaOT's #iprt17 project on #culturalIP in her law review article on the struggle for disclosure of cultural & genetic resource utilization in design, out now in @VandyJETLaw. live-tweeting ftw!
yu: we actively export our IP doctrines to other countries, so we need to pay attention to how they're being received/integrated. #iprt17
Our final preso, Customizing Fair Use Transplants, a new WIP by an esteemed colleague & dear friend Prof Peter Yu of @TAMULawSchool #IPRT17
yu: "the future of global fair use is not fair use"-- we should move away from "transplanting" f/u toward "designing" f/u. #iprt17
Bottom line from Yu: The future of global fair use is not fair use. #IPRT17
yu: fair use & fair dealing exist on a continuum--each country finds its best balance. #iprt17
yu: if we want a transplant to be successful, we need to customize it to needs/conditions of local community & legal regime. #iprt17
yu: countries have been adopting copyright fair use all over the world. pros & cons of legal transplants? #iprt17
"[X] is my critical failure as a scholar." @SarahRajec: "This isn't that kind of meeting." #IPRT17
of course, it's possible to recognize a bad act has no cognizable harm, resulting in lack of relief. @SharonSandeen #iprt17 #tradesecrets
Cybersecurity as a tort claim. @SharonSandeen endeavors to put the puzzling legal framework pieces regarding "harm" together #IPRT17
another way to conceive of harm in TS access w/o use is reputational damage to information/trade secret owner. @SharonSandeen #iprt17
can conceptualize harm as time/money/effort to discover breach & repair system, but ≠ harm to trade secret itself. @SharonSandeen #iprt17
.@SharonSandeen refrain: in trade secret misappropriation without disclosure or use, "where is the harm?" #iprt17
cases say tort can exist w/o disclosure/use, but they never articulate theory of harm based on mere acquisition. @SharonSandeen #iprt17
@lexlanham @SharonSandeen But these cases seem not to exist, @TradeSecretProf says--and why would they? So why is this in the law? #IPRT17
wrongful acquisition tort w/ 2 degrees: 1) acquisition + duty of confidentiality; or 2) followed by disclosure/use. @SharonSandeen #iprt17
@SharonSandeen 14k documents taken in uber/waymo case, but if not disclosed or used, how can damages exist? same Q in hacking cases. @SharonSandeen #iprt17
what if you have a trade secret acquisition by improper means, but no disclosure/use--what harm? @SharonSandeen #iprt17
.@profabartow introduces @SharonSandeen as the world authority on US trade secrets law & someone who is pretty much always right. #iprt17
