nå. <em class="citetitle">Fri Kultur</em> er om problemene internett forårsaker

Men i motsetning til i boken <em class="citetitle">Code</em>, er argumentet her
ikke så mye om internett i seg selv. Istedet er det om konsekvensen av
internett for en del av vår tradisjon som er mye mer grunnleggende, og
uansett hvor hardt dette er for en geek-wanna-be å innrømme, mye viktigere.
</p><p>
Den tradisjonen er måten vår kultur blir laget på. Som jeg vil forklare i
-sidene som følger, kommer vi fra en tradisjon av <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">fri

og beskytter skapere og oppfinnere. Dette gjør den direkte ved å tildele
immaterielle rettigheter. Men det gjør den indirekte ved å begrense
rekkevidden for disse rettighetene, for å garantere at neste generasjon
skapere og oppfinnere forblir <span class="emphasis"><em>så fri som mulig</em></span> fra
kontroll fra fortiden. En fri kultur er ikke en kultur uten eierskap, like
lite som et fritt marked er et marked der alt er gratis. Det motsatte av

Hvis vi forsto denne endringen, så tror jeg vi ville stå imot den. Ikke

men vi som ikke har investert i den spesifikke kulturindustrien som har
definert det tjuende århundre. Enten du er på venstre eller høyresiden, hvis
du i denne forstand ikke har interesser, vil historien jeg forteller her gi
deg problemer. For endringene jeg beskriver påvirker verdier som begge sider
av vår politiske kultur anser som grunnleggende.

Vi så et glimt av dette tverrpolitiske raseri på forsommeren i 2003. Da FCC
vurderte endringer i reglene for medieeierskap som ville slakke på
begrensningene rundt mediekonsentrasjon, sendte en ekstraordinær koalisjon
mer enn 700 000 brev til FCC for å motsette seg endringen. Mens William

Høres dette ikke-konservativt ut? Ikke for meg. Denne konsentrasjonen av
makt—politisk, selskapsmessig, pressemessig, kulturelt—bør være
bannlyst av konservative. Spredningen av makt gjennom lokal kontroll, og
derigjennom oppmuntre til individuell deltagelse, er essensen i føderalismen

Denne idéen er et element i argumentet til <em class="citetitle">Fri
Kultur</em>, selv om min fokus ikke bare er på konsentrasjonen av
endring i det effektive virkeområdet til loven. Loven er i endring, og
endringen forandrer på hvordan vår kultur blir skapt. Den endringen bør
bekymre deg—Uansett om du bryr deg om internett eller ikke, og uansett
-om du er til venstre for Safires eller til høyre. Inspirasjonen til tittelen

Jeg godtar kritikken, hvis det faktisk er kritikk. Arbeidet til en advokat

Da Wright-brødrene fant opp flymaskinen, hevdet loven i USA at en grunneier
ble antatt å eie ikke bare overflaten på området sitt, men også alt landet
under bakken, helt ned til senterpunktet i jorda, og alt volumet over

I 1945 ble disse spørsmålene en føderal sak. Da bøndene Thomas Lee og Tinie
Causby i Nord Carolina begynte å miste kyllinger på grunn av lavtflygende
militære fly (vettskremte kyllinger fløy tilsynelatende i låveveggene og
døde), saksøkte Causbyene regjeringen for å trenge seg inn på deres
eiendom. Flyene rørte selvfølgelig aldri overflaten på Causbys' eiendom. Men
hvis det stemte som Blackstone, Kent, og Cola hadde sagt, at deres eiendom

Høyesterett gikk med på å ta opp Causbys sak. Kongressen hadde vedtatt at
luftfartsveiene var tilgjengelig for alle, men hvis ens eiendom virkelig
rakk til himmelen, da kunne muligens kongressens vedtak ha vært i strid med
-grunnlovens forbud mot å <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">ta</span>”</span> eiendom uten kompensasjon.

Det er hvordan loven vanligvis fungerer. Ikke ofte like brått eller

stilen til Douglas å utbrodere. Andre dommere ville ha skrevet mange flere

det tar flere sider eller kun noen få ord, så er det en genial egenskap med
et rettspraksis-system, slik som vårt er, at loven tilpasser seg til
aktuelle teknologiene. Og mens den tilpasser seg, så endres den. Idéer som
var solide som fjell i en tidsalder knuses i en annen.

Eller, det er hvordan ting skjer når det ikke er noen mektige på andre siden
av endringen. Causbyene var bare bønder. Og selv om det uten tvil var
mange som dem som var lei av den økende trafikken i luften (og en håper ikke

Dagen etter julaften i 1933, ble fire patenter utstedt til Armstrong for
hans mest signifikante oppfinnelse—FM-radio. Inntil da hadde
kringkasting som han hadde satt opp 27 kilometer unna. Radioen ble helt
stille, som om den var død, og så, med en klarhet ingen andre i rommet noen
gang hadde hørt fra et elektrisk apparat, produserte det lyden av en

Armstrong til å oppdage en måte å fjerne støyen fra AM-radio. Så Sarnoff var

Armstrongs oppfinnelse truet RCAs AM-herredømme, så selskapet lanserte en
kampanje for å knuse FM-radio. Mens FM kan ha vært en overlegen teknologi,
var Sarnoff en overlegen taktiker. En forfatter beskrev det slik,

tyngden til strategien utviklet av avdelingene for salg, patenter og juss

For å gjøre plass i spektrumet for RCAs nyeste satsingsområde, televisjon,
skulle FM-radioens brukere flyttes til et helt nytt band i spektrumet.
Sendestyrken til FM-radioene ble også redusert, og gjorde at FM ikke lenger
ikke engang dekket Armstrongs advokatregning. Beseiret, knust og nå blakk,
skrev Armstrong i 1954 en kort beskjed til sin kone, før han gikk ut av et
vindu i trettende etasje og falt i døden.

Dette er slik loven virker noen ganger. Ikke ofte like tragisk, og sjelden
med heltemodig drama, men noen ganger er det slik det virker. Fra starten
prosess. RCA hadde hva Causby-ene ikke hadde: Makten til å undertrykke
effekten av en teknologisk endring.

Fra historisk tid, og for omtrent hele vår tradisjon, har ikke-kommersiell
kultur i hovedsak ikke vært regulert. Selvfølgelig, hvis din historie var
utuktig, eller hvis dine sanger forstyrret freden, kunne loven gripe inn.

delta i fan-klubber, deling av musikk, laging av kassetter—ble ikke
Fokuset på loven var kommersiell kreativitet. I starten forsiktig, etter
hvert betraktelig, beskytter loven insentivet til skaperne ved å tildele dem
en eksklusiv rett til deres kreative verker, slik at de kan selge disse
-eksklusive rettighetene på en kommersiell markedsplass.<sup>[<a name="id3057425" href="#ftn.id3057425" class="footnote">11</a>]</sup> Dette er også, naturligvis, en viktig del av

kreativitet og kultur, og det har blitt en viktigere og viktigere del i
USA. Men det var på ingen måte dominerende i vår tradisjon. Det var i
stedet bare en del, en kontrollert del, balansert mot det frie.
</p><p>
Denne grove inndelingen mellom den frie og den kontrollerte har nå blitt

individer skaper og deler kultur havnet innen rekekvidde for reguleringene
Det ser ikke slik ut for mange. Kamphandlingene over opphavsrett og

hovedsak å handle om et enklere sett med spørsmål—hvorvidt

respektere eiendomsretten. For å vite hvilken side vi bør ta i denne
krigen, de fleste tenker at vi kun trenger å bestemme om hvorvidt vi er for
eiendomsrett eller mot den.

Hvis dette virkelig var alternativene, så ville jeg være enig med Jack
Valenti og innholdsindustrien. Jeg tror også på eiendomsretten, og spesielt

Men disse enkle trosoppfatninger maskerer et mye mer grunnleggende spørsmål

Men da internettet dukket opp, forsvant denne naturlige begrensningen til
lovens virkeområde. Loven kontrollerer ikke bare kreativiteten til
kommersielle skapere, men effektivt sett kreativiteten til alle. Selv om

denne typen. Vi trenger ikke gå så langt for å anerkjenne dens betydning.

</p><p> I 1928 var kulturen som Disney fritt kunne trekke veksler på relativt
fersk. Allemannseie i 1928 var ikke veldig gammelt og var dermed ganske
levende. Gjennomsnittlig vernetid i opphavsretten var bare rundt tredve
år—for den lille delen av kreative verk som faktisk var

Når opphavsrettens vernetid er over, faller et verk i det fri og blir

verket. Ingen tillatelse og dermed, ingen advokater. Allemannseie er en

Vurder for eksempel en form for kreativitet som synes underlig for mange

Likevel eksisterer dette illegale markedet og faktisk blomstrer i Japan, og
etter manges syn er det nettopp fordi det eksisterer at japansk manga

Amerikanske tegneserier nå er ganske annerledes, forklarer Winick, delvis på
grunn av de juridiske problemene med å tilpasse tegneserier slik doujinshi
-får lov til. Med for eksempel Supermann, fortalte Winick meg, <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">er det

+gamle.</span>»</span>
+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2695386"></a><p>
Normen i Japan reduserer denne juridiske utfordringen. Noen sier at det
nettopp er den oppsamlede fordelen i det japanske mangamarkedet som
forklarer denne reduksjonen. Jussprofessor Salil Mehra ved Temple
University hypnotiserer for eksempel med at manga-markedet aksepterer disse
teoretiske bruddene fordi de får mangamarkedet til å bli rikere og mer
produktivt. Alle ville få det verre hvis doujinshi ble bannlyst, så loven
-bannlyser ikke doujinshi.<sup>[<a name="id3059310" href="#ftn.id3059310" class="footnote">24</a>]</sup>
+bannlyser ikke doujinshi.<sup>[<a name="id2695411" href="#ftn.id2695411" class="footnote">24</a>]</sup>
</p><p>
Problemet med denne historien, derimot, og som Mehra helt klart erkjenner,
-er at mekanismen som produserer denne <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">hold hendene

helhet gjør det bedre hvis doujinshi tillates i stedet for å bannlyse den,
men det forklarer likevel ikke hvorfor individuelle opphavsrettsinnehavere
ikke saksøker. Hvis loven ikke har et generelt unntak for doujinshi, og det
finnes faktisk noen tilfeller der individuelle manga-kunstnere har saksøkt
doujinshi-kunstnere, hvorfor er det ikke et mer generelt mønster for å

For $25 kunne alle ta bilder. Det var allerede film i kameraet, og når det
var brukt ble kameraet returnert til en Eastman-fabrikk hvor filmen ble
for salg i 1888, og et år senere trykket Kodak mer enn seks tusen negativer
om dagen. Fra 1888 til 1909, mens produksjonen i industrien vokste med 4,7

Den virkelige betydningen av oppfinnelsen til Eastman, var derimot ikke
økonomisk. Den var sosial. Profesjonell fotografering ga individer et
glimt av steder de ellers aldri ville se. Amatørfotografering ga dem
muligheten til å arkivere deres liv på en måte som de aldri hadde vært i

På denne måten var Kodak-kameraet og film uttrykksteknologier. Blyanten og
malepenselen var selvfølgelig også en uttrykksteknologi. Men det tok årevis
med trening før de kunne bli brukt nyttig og effektiv av amatører. Med
Kodaken var uttrykk mulig mye raskere og enklere. Barrièren for å uttrykke

fotografering, var det en rekke av rettsavgjørelser som godt kunne ha endret
kursen til fotograferingen betydelig. Domstoler ble spurt om fotografen,
amatør eller profesjonell, måtte ha ha tillatelse før han kunne fange og

som hans animatører brukte til å tegne Mikke, så skulle heller ikke disse

På den andre siden var et argument som også bør bør være kjent. Joda, det
var kanskje noe av verdi som ble brukt. Men borgerne burde ha rett til å
fange i hvert fall de bildene som var tatt av offentlig område. (Louis
Brandeis, som senere ble høyesterettsjustitiarus, mente regelen skulle være

På samme måte som Disney kunne hente inspirasjon fra <em class="citetitle">Steamboat

til å fange et bilde uten å kompensere kilden.

Heldigvis for Mr. Eastman, og for fotografering generelt, gikk disse
tidligere avgjørelsene i favør av piratene. Generelt ble det ikke nødvendig
å sikre seg tillatelse før et bilde kunne tas og deles med andre. I stedet
ga etter en stund et unntak for berømte personer: kommersielle fotografer
som tok bilder av berømte personer for kommersielle formål har flere
begrensninger enn resten av oss. Men i det vanlige tilfellet, kan bildet

Vi kan kun spekulere om hvordan fotografering ville ha utviklet seg om loven
hadde slått ut den andre veien. Hvis den hadde vært mot fotografen, da
Eastman Kodak også måtte ha dokumentert at tillatelse var gitt, før de
utviklet filmen som bildene ble fanget på. Tross alt, hvis tillatelse ikke
var gitt, da ville Eastman Kodak ha nytt fordeler fra

Men i USA har blogger inntatt en svært annerledes karakter. Det er noen som
bruker denne plassen til å snakke om sitt private liv. Men det er mange som
bruker denne plassen til å delta i offentlig debatt. Diskuterer saker med
valgene teller. Et relativt lite antall mennesker stemmer i disse valgene.
Syklusen med disse valgene har blitt totalt profesjonalisert og

Men demokrati har aldri kun handlet om valg. Demokrati betyr at folket
styrer, og å styre betyr noe mer enn kun valg. I vår tradisjon betyr det
også kontroll gjennom gjennomtenkt meningsbrytning. Dette var idéen som
fanget fantasien til Alexis de Tocqueville, den franske

han mest var at juryen ikke bare stemte over hvilket resultat de ville legge
frem. De diskuterte. Medlemmene argumenterte om hva som var
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">riktig</span>”</span> resultat, de forsøkte å overbevise hverandre om

</p><p>
Og likevel fremheves denne institusjonen i USA i dag. Og i dets sted er det
ingen systematisk innsats for å muliggjøre borger-diskusjon. Noen gjør en

Mer merkelig er at en generelt sett ikke engang har aksept for at det skal

mot å diskutere politikk. Det er greit å diskutere politikk med folk du er
enig med, men det er uhøflig å diskutere politikk med folk du er uenig med.

historien ville forsvinne fra de store mediene i løpet av førtiåtte timer.
Det skjedde. Men han regnet ikke med dens livssyklus i bloggsfæren.

Denne annerledes syklusen er mulig på grunn av at et tilsvarende kommersielt
press ikke eksisterer hos blogger slik det gjør hos andre kanaler.
Det er også en annen måte, hvor blogger har en annen syklus enn de store
mediene. Som Dave Winer, en av fedrene til denne bevegelsen og en
programvareutvikler i mange tiår fortalte meg, er en annen forskjell

Disse konfliktene blir mer viktig etter hvert som mediene blir mer
konsentert (mer om dette under). Konsenterte medier kan skjule mer fra
offentligheten enn ikke-konsenterte medier kan—slik CNN innrømte at de
gjorde etter Iraq-krigen fordi de var rett for konsekvensene for sine egne

melding på Internet fra noen som på det tidspunktet lyttet på

reporteren gang på gang at hennes rapport om krigen var for trist: Hun måtte
tilby en mer optimistisk historie. Når hun fortalte New York at det ikke var

Etter som RIAA påsto det var mer enn et hundre spesifikke

Jesse kontaktet sine foreldre. De støttet ham, men var litt skremt. En
onkel var advokat. Han startet forhandlinger med RIAA. De krevde å få vite
hvor mye penger Jesse hadde. Jesse hadde spart opp $12 000 fra
sommerjobber og annet arbeid. De krevde 12 000 for å trekke saken.
-</p><p>

RIAA ville at Jesse skulle innrømme at han hadde gjort noe galt. Han
nektet. De ville ha han til å godta en kjennelse som i praksis ville gjøre
det umulig for han å arbeide i mange områder innen teknologi for resten av
hans liv. Han nektet. De fikk han til å forstå at denne prosessen med å
bli saksøkt ikke kom til å bli hyggelig. (Som faren til Jesse refererte til

insisterte RIAA at de ikke ville inngå forlik før de hadde tatt hver eneste
øre som Jesse hadde spart opp.

Så Jesse hadde et mafia-lignende valg: $250 000 og en sjanse til å
vinne, eller $12 000 og et forlik.

-The law soon resolved this battle in favor of the composer
-<span class="emphasis"><em>and</em></span> the recording artist. Congress amended the law to
-make sure that composers would be paid for the <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">mechanical
-reproductions</span>”</span> of their music. But rather than simply granting the
-composer complete control over the right to make mechanical reproductions,
-Congress gave recording artists a right to record the music, at a price set
-by Congress, once the composer allowed it to be recorded once. This is the
-part of copyright law that makes cover songs possible. Once a composer
-authorizes a recording of his song, others are free to record the same song,
-so long as they pay the original composer a fee set by the law.
-</p><p>
-American law ordinarily calls this a <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">compulsory license,</span>”</span> but
-I will refer to it as a <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">statutory license.</span>”</span> A statutory
-license is a license whose key terms are set by law. After Congress's
-amendment of the Copyright Act in 1909, record companies were free to
-distribute copies of recordings so long as they paid the composer (or
-copyright holder) the fee set by the statute.
-</p><p>
-This is an exception within the law of copyright. When John Grisham writes a
-novel, a publisher is free to publish that novel only if Grisham gives the
-publisher permission. Grisham, in turn, is free to charge whatever he wants
-for that permission. The price to publish Grisham is thus set by Grisham,
-and copyright law ordinarily says you have no permission to use Grisham's
-work except with permission of Grisham. <a class="indexterm" name="id3062949"></a>
-</p><p>
-But the law governing recordings gives recording artists less. And thus, in
-effect, the law <span class="emphasis"><em>subsidizes</em></span> the recording industry
-through a kind of piracy—by giving recording artists a weaker right
-than it otherwise gives creative authors. The Beatles have less control over
-their creative work than Grisham does. And the beneficiaries of this less
-control are the recording industry and the public. The recording industry
-gets something of value for less than it otherwise would pay; the public
-gets access to a much wider range of musical creativity. Indeed, Congress
-was quite explicit about its reasons for granting this right. Its fear was
-the monopoly power of rights holders, and that that power would stifle
-follow-on creativity.<sup>[<a name="id3062475" href="#ftn.id3062475" class="footnote">60</a>]</sup> <a class="indexterm" name="id3062990"></a>

-While the recording industry has been quite coy about this recently,

+Disse argumentene høres omtrent ut som argumentene fra våre dager. Det samme
+gjør argumentene fra den andre siden. Oppfinnerne som utviklet det

+salget av noteark.<sup>[<a name="id2699177" href="#ftn.id2699177" class="footnote">58</a>]</sup> Uansett,
+argumenterte oppfinnerne, jobben til kongressen var <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">å først vurdere
+interessen til [folket], som de representerte, og som de skal
+tjene.</span>»</span>. <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">Alt snakk om 'tyveri',</span>»</span> skrev sjefsjuristen
+til American Graphophone Company, <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">er kun nonsens, for det finnes
+ingen eiendom i musikalske ideer, skriftlig eller kunstnerisk, unntatt det
+som er definert i loven.</span>»</span><sup>[<a name="id2699201" href="#ftn.id2699201" class="footnote">59</a>]</sup>
+<a class="indexterm" name="id2699213"></a>
+</p><p>
+
+Loven løste snart denne kampen i favør av <span class="emphasis"><em>både</em></span>
+komponisten og innspillingsartisten. Kongressen endret loven slik at
+komponisten fikk betalt for den <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">mekaniske reproduksjonen</span>»</span> av
+deres musikk. Men i stedet for å ganske enkelt gi komponisten full kontroll
+over rettigheten til å lage mekaniske reproduksjoner, ga kongressen
+innspillingsartister rett en til å spille inn musikk, til en pris satt av
+kongressen, så snart komponisten har tillatt at den ble spilt inn en gang.
+Det er denne delen av opphavsrettsloven som gjør cover-låter mulig. Så
+snart en komponist tillater en innspilling av hans sang, har andre mulighet
+til å spille inn samme sang, så lenge de betaler den originale komponisten
+et gebyr fastsatt av loven.
+</p><p>
+Amerikansk lov kaller dette vanligvis en <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">tvangslisens</span>»</span>, men
+jeg vil referere til dette som en <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">lovbestemt lisens</span>»</span>. En
+lovbestemt lisens er en lisens hvis nøkkelvilkår er bestemt i lovverket.
+Etter kongressens endring av opphavsrettsloven i 1909, sto plateselskapene
+fritt til å distribuere kopier av innspillinger så lenge som de betalte
+komponisten (eller opphavsrettsinnehaveren) gebyret spesifisert i lovverket.
+</p><p>
+Dette er et unntak i opphavsrettsloven. Når John Grisham skriver en roman
+så kan en utgiver kun utgi denne romanen hvis Grisham gir utgiveren
+tillatelse til det. Girsham står fritt til å kreve hvilken som helst
+betaling for den tillatelsen. Prisen for å publisere Grisham er dermed
+bestemt av Grisham og opphavsrettsloven sier at du ikke har tillatelse til å
+bruke Grishams verker med mindre du har tillatelse fra Grisham.
+<a class="indexterm" name="id2699283"></a>
+</p><p>
+Men loven som styrer innspillinger gir innspillingsartisten mindre. Og
+dermed er effekten at loven <span class="emphasis"><em>subsidierer</em></span>
+musikkindustrien med et slags piratvirksomhet—ved å gi
+innspillingsartister en svakere rettighet enn de gir kreative forfattere.
+The Beatles har mindre kontroll over deres kreative verker enn Grisham har.
+Og de som nyter godt av at de har mindre kontroll er musikkindustrien og
+folket. Musikkindustrien får noe av verdi for mindre enn de ellers måtte
+betalt, og folket får tilgang til en større mengde musikalsk kreativitet.
+Kongressen var faktisk svært eksplisitt i sine grunner for å dele ut denne
+rettigheten. Den fryktet monopolmakten til rettighetsinnehaverne, og at
+denne makten skulle kvele påvølgende kreativitet.<sup>[<a name="id2698751" href="#ftn.id2698751" class="footnote">60</a>]</sup> <a class="indexterm" name="id2699330"></a>
+</p><p>
+Mens musikkindustrien har vært ganske stille om dette i det siste, har de
+historisk vært høylytte tilhengere av den lovbestemte lisensen for
+innspillinger. Som det sto i en rapport fra 1967 utgitt av House Committee
+on the Judiciary:
</p><div class="blockquote"><blockquote class="blockquote"><p>
-the record producers argued vigorously that the compulsory license system
-must be retained. They asserted that the record industry is a
-half-billion-dollar business of great economic importance in the United
-States and throughout the world; records today are the principal means of
-disseminating music, and this creates special problems, since performers
-need unhampered access to musical material on nondiscriminatory
-terms. Historically, the record producers pointed out, there were no
-recording rights before 1909 and the 1909 statute adopted the compulsory
-license as a deliberate anti-monopoly condition on the grant of these
-rights. They argue that the result has been an outpouring of recorded music,
-with the public being given lower prices, improved quality, and a greater
-choice.<sup>[<a name="id3063022" href="#ftn.id3063022" class="footnote">61</a>]</sup>
+plateprodusentene argumenterte energisk for at tvangslisens-systemet måtte
+bevares. De tok utgangspunkt i at musikkindustrien er et forretningsområde
+på en halv milliard dollar som er veldig viktig for økonomien i USA og
+resten av verden. Plater er i dag den viktigste måten å spre musikk, og
+dette fører til spesielle problemer, siden utøvere trenger uhindret tilgang
+til musikalsk materiale på ikke-diskriminerende vilkår. Plateprodusentene
+pekte på at historisk var det ingen innspillingsrettigheter før 1909 og
+1909-endringen i lovverket vedtok tvangslisensen som en gjennomtenkt
+mekanisme for å unngå monopol da de tildelte disse rettighetene. De
+argumenterer med at resultatet har vært at det har strømmet på med innspillt
+musikk, at folket har fått lavere priser, bedre kvalitet og flere
+valg.<sup>[<a name="id2699383" href="#ftn.id2699383" class="footnote">61</a>]</sup>

-When a radio station plays a record on the air, that constitutes a
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">public performance</span>”</span> of the composer's work.<sup>[<a name="id3063062" href="#ftn.id3063062" class="footnote">62</a>]</sup> As I described above, the law gives the composer
-(or copyright holder) an exclusive right to public performances of his
-work. The radio station thus owes the composer money for that performance.
+Når en radiostasjon spiller en plate på luften, så utgjør dette en
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">offentlig fremføring</span>»</span> av komponistens verk.<sup>[<a name="id2699447" href="#ftn.id2699447" class="footnote">62</a>]</sup> Som jeg beskrev over, gir loven komponisten (eller
+opphavsrettsinnehaveren) en eksklusiv rett til offentlige fremføringer av
+hans verk. Radiostasjonen skylder dermed komponisten penger for denne
+fremføringe.
</p><p>
-But when the radio station plays a record, it is not only performing a copy
-of the <span class="emphasis"><em>composer's</em></span> work. The radio station is also
-performing a copy of the <span class="emphasis"><em>recording artist's</em></span> work. It's
-one thing to have <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Happy Birthday</span>”</span> sung on the radio by the
-local children's choir; it's quite another to have it sung by the Rolling
-Stones or Lyle Lovett. The recording artist is adding to the value of the
-composition performed on the radio station. And if the law were perfectly
-consistent, the radio station would have to pay the recording artist for his
-work, just as it pays the composer of the music for his work. <a class="indexterm" name="id3063138"></a>
+Men når en radiostasjon spiller en plage, så fremfører det ikke bare et
+eksemplar av <span class="emphasis"><em>komponistens</em></span> verk. Radiostasjonen
+fremfører også et eksemplar av <span class="emphasis"><em>innspillingsartistens</em></span>
+verk. Det er en ting å få <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">Happy Birthday</span>»</span> sunget på radio av
+det lokale barnekoret. Det er noe ganske annet å få det sunget av Rolling
+Stones eller Lyle Lovett. Innspillingsartisten legger til verdi på
+komposisjonen fremført på radiostasjonen. Og hvis loven var fullstendig
+konsistent, så burde radiostasjonen også vært nødt til å betale
+innspillingsartisten for hans verk, på samme måten som den betaler
+komponisten av musikken for hans verk. <a class="indexterm" name="id2699539"></a>
</p><p>
-But it doesn't. Under the law governing radio performances, the radio
-station does not have to pay the recording artist. The radio station need
-only pay the composer. The radio station thus gets a bit of something for
-nothing. It gets to perform the recording artist's work for free, even if it
-must pay the composer something for the privilege of playing the song.
+Men det gjør den ikke. I følge loven som styrer radiofremføringer, trenger
+ikke radiostasjonen å betale noe til innspillingsartisten. Radiostasjonen
+trenger kun å betale komponisten. Radiostasjonen får dermed noe uten å
+betale. Den får fremføre innspillingsartistens verk gratis, selv om den må
+betale komponisten noe for privilegiet det er å spille sangen.
</p><a class="indexterm" name="idxmadonna"></a><p>
Denne forskjellen kan bli stor. Forestill deg at du komponerer et stykke
musikk. Se for deg at det er ditt første stykke. Du eier de eksklusive
populær hitlåt. Med vår lov vil du få litt penger hver gang en radiostasjon
spiller din sang. Men Madonna får ingenting, fortsett fra de indirekte
effektene fra salg av hennes CD-er. Den offentlige fremføringen av hennes
-innspilling er ikke en <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">beskyttet</span>”</span> rettighet. Radiostasjonen
+innspilling er ikke en <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">beskyttet</span>»</span> rettighet. Radiostasjonen
får dermed <span class="emphasis"><em>røve</em></span> verdien av Madonnas arbeid uten å
betale henne noen ting.
-</p><a class="indexterm" name="id3063207"></a><p>
-No doubt, one might argue that, on balance, the recording artists
-benefit. On average, the promotion they get is worth more than the
-performance rights they give up. Maybe. But even if so, the law ordinarily
-gives the creator the right to make this choice. By making the choice for
-him or her, the law gives the radio station the right to take something for
-nothing.

+Uten tvil kan en argumentere at, totalt sett, tjener innspillingsartistene
+på dette. I snitt er reklamen de får verdt mer enn enn
+fremføringsrettighetene de frasier seg. Kanskje. Men selv om det er slik,
+så gir loven vanligvis skaperen retten til å gjøre dette valget. Ved å
+gjøre valgen for ham eller henne, gir loven radiostasjonen rett til å ta noe

Kabel-TV kom også fra en form for piratvirksomhet.

-When cable entrepreneurs first started wiring communities with cable

-selling access to television broadcasts, they refused to pay for what they

+Da kabel-TV-gründere først begynte å koble opp fellesskap med kabel-TV i
+1948, nektet de fleste å betale kringkasterne for innholdet som de sendte
+videre til sine kunder. Selv da kabelselskapene begynte å selge tilgang til
+TV-kringkastinger, nektet de å betale for det de solgte. Kabelselskapene
+Napsteriserte dermed kringkasternes innhold, men grovere enn det Napster
+noen gang gjorde—Napster tok aldri betalt for innholdet som det ble
+mulig for andre å gi bort.

-There is piracy of copyrighted material. Lots of it. This piracy comes in

-many justifications that are offered in its defense, this taking is
-wrong. No one should condone it, and the law should stop it.
-</p><p>
-

-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">taking</span>”</span> that is more directly related to the Internet. That
-taking, too, seems wrong to many, and it is wrong much of the time. Before

+Det røves opphavsrettsbeskyttet materiale. Massevis. Og denne

+kommersiell piratvirksomhet, det å ta andres innhold uten lov i en

+greit som fremføres i dets forsvar, så er dette galt. Ingen bør gå god for

+</p><p>
+
+Men på samme måte som med piratvirksomheten til kopierings-firma, så
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">tas</span>»</span> det på en annen måte som er mer direkte relatert til

+gjort ofte tidligere.

All across the world, but especially in Asia and Eastern Europe, there are
businesses that do nothing but take others people's copyrighted content,
copy it, and sell it—all without the permission of a copyright
owner. The recording industry estimates that it loses about $4.6 billion
-every year to physical piracy<sup>[<a name="id3063410" href="#ftn.id3063410" class="footnote">70</a>]</sup> (that
+every year to physical piracy<sup>[<a name="id2699853" href="#ftn.id2699853" class="footnote">70</a>]</sup> (that
works out to one in three CDs sold worldwide). The MPAA estimates that it
loses $3 billion annually worldwide to piracy.
</p><p>
If a country is to be treated as a sovereign, however, then its laws are its
laws regardless of their source. The international law under which these
nations live gives them some opportunities to escape the burden of
-intellectual property law.<sup>[<a name="id3063647" href="#ftn.id3063647" class="footnote">71</a>]</sup> In my view,
+intellectual property law.<sup>[<a name="id2700127" href="#ftn.id2700127" class="footnote">71</a>]</sup> In my view,
more developing nations should take advantage of that opportunity, but when
they don't, then their laws should be respected. And under the laws of these
nations, this piracy is wrong.
-</p><p>
+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2700171"></a><p>
Alternatively, we could try to excuse this piracy by noting that in any
case, it does no harm to the industry. The Chinese who get access to
American CDs at 50 cents a copy are not people who would have bought those
American CDs at $15 a copy. So no one really has any less money than they
-otherwise would have had.<sup>[<a name="id3063711" href="#ftn.id3063711" class="footnote">72</a>]</sup>
+otherwise would have had.<sup>[<a name="id2700185" href="#ftn.id2700185" class="footnote">72</a>]</sup>
</p><p>
This is often true (though I have friends who have purchased many thousands
of pirated DVDs who certainly have enough money to pay for the content they
have taken), and it does mitigate to some degree the harm caused by such
-taking. Extremists in this debate love to say, <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">You wouldn't go into
+taking. Extremists in this debate love to say, <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">You wouldn't go into

+should it be any different with on-line music?</span>»</span> The difference is, of
course, that when you take a book from Barnes & Noble, it has one less
book to sell. By contrast, when you take an MP3 from a computer network,
there is not one less CD that can be sold. The physics of piracy of the
doesn't want to sell, she doesn't have to. There are exceptions: important
statutory licenses that apply to copyrighted content regardless of the wish
of the copyright owner. Those licenses give people the right to

content, it is wrong to take that content even if the wrong does no harm. If
we have a property system, and that system is properly balanced to the
technology of a time, then it is wrong to take property without the
-permission of a property owner. That is exactly what <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">property</span>”</span>

means.
-</p><p>
+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2700273"></a><p>
Finally, we could try to excuse this piracy with the argument that the
piracy actually helps the copyright owner. When the Chinese

one. Many businesses practice it. Some thrive because of it. Law students,

Let's start with some simple but important points. From the perspective of
the law, only type D sharing is clearly legal. From the perspective of

beneficial. Type C sharing is illegal, yet good for society (since more
exposure to music is good) and harmless to the artist (since the work is
not otherwise available). So how sharing matters on balance is a hard
type A sharing is. Just as Edison complained about Hollywood, composers
complained about piano rolls, recording artists complained about radio, and
broadcasters complained about cable TV, the music industry complains that

</p><p>
While the numbers do suggest that sharing is harmful, how harmful is harder
to reckon. It has long been the recording industry's practice to blame
technology for any drop in sales. The history of cassette recording is a
good example. As a study by Cap Gemini Ernst & Young put it,
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Rather than exploiting this new, popular technology, the labels

But just because the industry was wrong before does not mean it is wrong
today. To evaluate the real threat that p2p sharing presents to the industry

We start to answer this question by focusing on the net harm, from the

causes that could account for this drop. SoundScan, for example, reports a

These are the harms—alleged and perhaps exaggerated but, let's assume,
real. What of the benefits? File sharing may impose costs on the recording
One benefit is type C sharing—making available content that is
technically still under copyright but is no longer commercially available.
This is not a small category of content. There are millions of tracks that
-are no longer commercially available.<sup>[<a name="id3064554" href="#ftn.id3064554" class="footnote">84</a>]</sup>
+are no longer commercially available.<sup>[<a name="id2701048" href="#ftn.id2701048" class="footnote">84</a>]</sup>
And while it's conceivable that some of this content is not available
because the artist producing the content doesn't want it to be made
available, the vast majority of it is unavailable solely because the
publisher or the distributor has decided it no longer makes economic sense
<span class="emphasis"><em>to the company</em></span> to make it available.

In real space—long before the Internet—the market had a simple
response to this problem: used book and record stores. There are thousands

+of used book and used record stores in America today.<sup>[<a name="id2701101" href="#ftn.id2701101" class="footnote">85</a>]</sup> These stores buy content from owners, then sell the
content they buy. And under American copyright law, when they buy and sell
this content, <span class="emphasis"><em>even if the content is still under
copyright</em></span>, the copyright owner doesn't get a dime. Used book and
record stores are commercial entities; their owners make money from the
content they sell; but as with cable companies before statutory licensing,
they don't have to pay the copyright owner for the content they sell.

+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2701162"></a><a class="indexterm" name="id2701168"></a><p>
Type C sharing, then, is very much like used book stores or used record
stores. It is different, of course, because the person making the content
available isn't making money from making the content available. It is also
different, of course, because in real space, when I sell a record, I don't
have it anymore, while in cyberspace, when someone shares my 1949 recording
-of Bernstein's <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Two Love Songs,</span>”</span> I still have it. That
+of Bernstein's <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">Two Love Songs,</span>»</span> I still have it. That
difference would matter economically if the owner of the copyright were
selling the record in competition to my sharing. But we're talking about the
class of content that is not currently commercially available. The Internet
stores. Or put differently, if you think that type C sharing should be
stopped, do you think that libraries and used book stores should be shut as
well?

+</p><a class="indexterm" name="idxbooksfreeonline1"></a><p>
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, file-sharing networks enable type D
sharing to occur—the sharing of content that copyright owners want to
for example, released his first novel, <em class="citetitle">Down and Out in the Magic
Kingdom</em>, both free on-line and in bookstores on the same
day. His (and his publisher's) thinking was that the on-line distribution
-would be a great advertisement for the <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">real</span>”</span> book. People
+would be a great advertisement for the <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">real</span>»</span> book. People
would read part on-line, and then decide whether they liked the book or
not. If they liked it, they would be more likely to buy it. Doctorow's
content is type D content. If sharing networks enable his work to be spread,
then both he and society are better off. (Actually, much better off: It is a
great book!)
-</p><p>
+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2701250"></a><p>
Likewise for work in the public domain: This sharing benefits society with
no legal harm to authors at all. If efforts to solve the problem of type A
sharing destroy the opportunity for type D sharing, then we lose something
important in order to protect type A content.
</p><p>
The point throughout is this: While the recording industry understandably
-says, <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">This is how much we've lost,</span>”</span> we must also ask,
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">How much has society gained from p2p sharing? What are the

efficiencies? What is the content that otherwise would be
-unavailable?</span>”</span>
+unavailable?</span>»</span>
</p><p>
For unlike the piracy I described in the first section of this chapter, much
-of the <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">piracy</span>”</span> that file sharing enables is plainly legal and
-good. And like the piracy I described in chapter <a class="xref" href="#pirates" title="Kapittel 4. Kapittel fire: “Pirater”">4</a>, much of this piracy is motivated by a new

+good. And like the piracy I described in chapter <a class="xref" href="#pirates" title="Kapittel fire: «Pirater»">4</a>, much of this piracy is motivated by a new
way of spreading content caused by changes in the technology of
distribution. Thus, consistent with the tradition that gave us Hollywood,
radio, the recording industry, and cable TV, the question we should be
question is one of balance. The law should seek that balance, and that
balance will be found only with time.

</p><p>
You would think. And we should hope. But so far, it is not. The effect of
the war purportedly on type A sharing alone has been felt far beyond that
itself. When Napster told the district court that it had developed a
technology to block the transfer of 99.4 percent of identified infringing
material, the district court told counsel for Napster 99.4 percent was not
-good enough. Napster had to push the infringements <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">down to
-zero.</span>”</span><sup>[<a name="id3064775" href="#ftn.id3064775" class="footnote">86</a>]</sup>

</p><p>
If 99.4 percent is not good enough, then this is a war on file-sharing
technologies, not a war on copyright infringement. There is no way to assure
the law sought to ensure the legitimate rights of creators while protecting
innovation. Sometimes this has meant more rights for creators. Sometimes
less.

In the same year that Congress struck this balance, two major producers and
distributors of film content filed a lawsuit against another technology, the
video tape recorder (VTR, or as we refer to them today, VCRs) that Sony had
produced, the Betamax. Disney's and Universal's claim against Sony was
relatively simple: Sony produced a device, Disney and Universal claimed,
that enabled consumers to engage in copyright infringement. Because the

could have built the machine to block or inhibit any direct copying from a
television broadcast. Or possibly, it could have built the machine to copy

shows would not have authorized copying. And in the face of this obvious
wanted to hold it responsible for the architecture it chose.

+<span class="strong"><strong>Opphavsretts-krigerne</strong></span> har rett:
+Opphavsretten er en type eiendom. Den kan eies og selges, og loven beskytter

+hvert tilfelle bestemmer prisen hun kan få.
</p><p>
Men i vanlig språk er det å kalle opphavsrett for en
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">eiendoms</span>”</span>-rett litt misvisende, for eindommen i opphavsretten
-er en merkelig type eiendom. Selve ideen om eienrettigheter til en ide
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">eiendoms</span>»</span>-rett litt misvisende, for eindommen i opphavsretten
+er en merkelig type eiendom. Selve Idéen om eienrettigheter til en idé
eller et uttrykk er nemlig veldig merkelig. Jeg forstår hva jeg tar når jeg
-tar en picnic-bord som du plasserte i din bakhage. Jeg tar en ting,
-picnic-bokrdet, og etter at jeg tar det har ikke du det. Men hva tar jeg
-når jeg tar den gode <span class="emphasis"><em>ideen</em></span> som du hadde om å plassere
-picnic-bordet i bakhagen—ved å for eksempel dra til butikken Sears,
+tar en piknik-bord som du plasserte i din bakhage. Jeg tar en ting,
+piknik-bokrdet, og etter at jeg tar det har ikke du det. Men hva tar jeg
+når jeg tar den gode <span class="emphasis"><em>idéen</em></span> som du hadde om å plassere
+piknik-bordet i bakhagen—ved å for eksempel dra til butikken Sears,
kjøpe et bord, og plassere det i min egen bakhage? Hva er tingen jeg tar da?
</p><p>
-The point is not just about the thingness of picnic tables versus ideas,
-though that's an important difference. The point instead is that in the
-ordinary case—indeed, in practically every case except for a narrow
-range of exceptions—ideas released to the world are free. I don't take
-anything from you when I copy the way you dress—though I might seem
-weird if I did it every day, and especially weird if you are a
-woman. Instead, as Thomas Jefferson said (and as is especially true when I
-copy the way someone else dresses), <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">He who receives an idea from me,
-receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his
-taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.</span>”</span><sup>[<a name="id3065490" href="#ftn.id3065490" class="footnote">96</a>]</sup>
+Poenget er ikke bare om hvorvidt piknik-bord og ideer er ting, selv om det
+er en viktig forskjell. Poenget er istedet at i det vanlige
+tilfelle—faktisk i praktisk talt ethvert tilfelle unntatt en begrenset
+rekke med unntak—er ideer sluppet ut i verden frie. Jeg tar ingenting
+fra deg når jeg kopierer måten du kler deg—selv om det ville se sært
+ut hvis jeg gjorde det hver dag, og spesielt sært hvis du er en kvinne.
+Istedet, som Thomas Jefferson sa (og det er spesielt sant når jeg kopierer
+hvordan noen andre kler seg), <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">Den som mottar en idé fra meg, får selv
+information uten å ta noe fra me, på samme måte som den som tenner sitt lys
+från min veike får lys utan å forlate meg i mørket</span>»</span>.<sup>[<a name="id2702088" href="#ftn.id2702088" class="footnote">96</a>]</sup>
</p><p>
Unntakene til fri bruk er ideer og uttrykk innenfor dekningsområdet til
loven om patent og opphavsrett, og noen få andre områder som jeg ikke vil
-diskutere her. Her sier loven at du ikke kan ta min ide eller uttrykk uten
-min tilatelse: Loven gjør det flyktige til eiendom.
+diskutere her. Her sier loven at du ikke kan ta min idé eller uttrykk uten

</p><p>
-But how, and to what extent, and in what form—the details, in other
-words—matter. To get a good sense of how this practice of turning the
-intangible into property emerged, we need to place this
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">property</span>”</span> in its proper context.<sup>[<a name="id3065542" href="#ftn.id3065542" class="footnote">97</a>]</sup>
+Men hvordan, og i hvilken utstrekning, og i hvilken form—detaljene,
+med andre ord—betyr noe. For å få en god forståelse om hvordan denne
+praksis om å gjøre det immaterielle om til eiendom vokste frem, trenger vi å
+plassere denne <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">eiendom</span>»</span> i sin rette sammenheng.<sup>[<a name="id2702130" href="#ftn.id2702130" class="footnote">97</a>]</sup>
</p><p>
-My strategy in doing this will be the same as my strategy in the preceding
-part. I offer four stories to help put the idea of <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">copyright material
-is property</span>”</span> in context. Where did the idea come from? What are its
-limits? How does it function in practice? After these stories, the
-significance of this true statement—<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">copyright material is
-property</span>”</span>— will be a bit more clear, and its implications will
-be revealed as quite different from the implications that the copyright
-warriors would have us draw.

Men altså, det er noe spennende med året 1774 for alle som vet litt om
opphavsretts-lovgivning. Det mest kjente året for opphavsrett er 1710, da
det britiske parlamentet vedtok den første loven. Denne loven er kjent som
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Statute of Anne</span>”</span> og sa at alle publiserte verk skulle være
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">Statute of Anne</span>»</span> og sa at alle publiserte verk skulle være
beskyttet i fjorten år, en periode som kunne fornyes én gang dersom
forfatteren ennå levde, og at alle verk publisert i eller før 1710 skulle ha
-en ekstraperiode på 22 tillegsår.<sup>[<a name="id3065721" href="#ftn.id3065721" class="footnote">100</a>]</sup> På
+en ekstraperiode på 22 tillegsår.<sup>[<a name="id2702373" href="#ftn.id2702373" class="footnote">100</a>]</sup> På
grunn av denne loven, så skulle <em class="citetitle">Rome og Julie</em> ha falt
i det fri i 1731. Hvordan kunne da Tonson fortsatt ha kontroll over verket i
1774?
</p><p>
Årsaken var ganske enkelt at engelskmennene ennå ikke hadde bestemt hva
opphavsrett innebar -- faktisk hadde ingen i verden det. På den tiden da
-engelskmennene vedtok <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Statute of Anne</span>”</span>, var det ingen annen
+engelskmennene vedtok <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">Statute of Anne</span>»</span>, var det ingen annen
lovgivning om opphavsrett. Den siste loven som regulerte utgivere var
lisensieringsloven av 1662, utløpt i 1695. At loven ga utgiverne monopol
over publiseringen, noe som gjorde det enklere for kronen å kontrollere hva
ble publisert. Men etter at det har utløpt, var det ingen positiv lov som sa
-at utgiverne hadde en eksklusiv rett til å trykke bøker. <a class="indexterm" name="id3065775"></a>
+at utgiverne hadde en eksklusiv rett til å trykke bøker. <a class="indexterm" name="id2702426"></a>
</p><p>
At det ikke fantes noen <span class="emphasis"><em>positiv</em></span> lov, betydde ikke at
det ikke fantes noen lov. Den anglo-amerikanske juridiske tradisjon ser både
til lover skapt av politikere (det lovgivende statsorgen)og til lover
(prejudikater) skapt av domstolene for å bestemme hvordan folket skal
leve. Vi kaller politikernes lover for positiv lov og vi kaller lovene fra
-dommerne sedvanerett.<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Common law</span>”</span> angir bakgrunnen for de
+dommerne sedvanerett.<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">Common law</span>»</span> angir bakgrunnen for de
lovgivendes lovgivning; retten til lovgiving, vanligvis kan trumfe at
bakgrunnen bare hvis det går gjennom en lov til å forskyve den. Og så var
det virkelige spørsmålet etter lisensiering lover hadde utløpt om felles lov
beskyttet opphavsretten, uavhengig av lovverket positiv.

bokhandernes forferdelse en viktig begrensning, nemlig hvor lenge denne
retten skulle vare. Etter dette gikk trykkeretten bort og verket falt i det
han verket, han gjorde det ikke noe vanskeligere for andre til å lage
skuespill. Så hvorfor skulle loven tillate at noen annen kunne komme og ta

Først om opphavsretten. I de siste tre hundre år har vi kommet til å bruke
-begrepet <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">copyright</span>”</span> i stadig videre forstand. Men i 1710 var
+begrepet <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">copyright</span>»</span> i stadig videre forstand. Men i 1710 var
det ikke så mye et konsept som det var en bestemt rett. Opphavsretten ble
født som et svært spesifikt sett med begrensninger: den forbød andre å
-reprodusere en bok. I 1710 var <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">kopi-rett</span>”</span> en rett til å bruke
+reprodusere en bok. I 1710 var <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">kopi-rett</span>»</span> en rett til å bruke
en bestemt maskin til å replikere en bestemt arbeid. Den gikk ikke utover
dette svært smale formålet. Den kontrollerte ikke mer generelt hvordan et
verk kunne <span class="emphasis"><em>brukes</em></span>. Idag inkluderer retten en stor
samling av restriksjoner på andres frihet: den gir forfatteren eksklusiv
rett til å kopiere, eksklusiv rett til å distribuere, eksklusiv rett til å
fremføre, og så videre.

Så selv om f. eks. opphavsretten til Shakespeares verker var evigvarende,
betydde det under den opprinnelige betydningen av begrepet at ingen kunne
trykke Shakespeares arbeid uten tillatelse fra Shakespeares arvinger. Den
ville ikke ha kontrollert noe mer, for eksempel om hvordan verket kunne
fremføres, om verket kunne oversettes eller om Kenneth Branagh ville hatt
-lov til å lage filmer. <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Kopi-retten</span>”</span> var bare en eksklusiv rett

utkjempet en borgerkrig delvis mot kronens praksis med å dele ut
monopoler--spesielt monopoler for verk som allerede eksisterte. Kong Henrik

Dernest, om bokhandlerne. Det var ikke bare at kopiretten var et

år var ikke nok, sa de; de trengte mer tid.

Else arbeidet med en dokumentarfilm hvor også jeg var involvert. I en pause
så fortalte han meg om hvordan det kunne være å skape film i dagens Amerika.
*stagehands* på San Francisco Opera. Stagehands er spesielt morsomt og
fargerikt innslag i en opera. I løpet av forestillingen oppholder de seg

</p><p>
Under en forestilling, filmet Else noen stagehands som spilte *checkers*. I
finansieringen, ville Else skaffe rettigheter til å bruke disse få sekundene
med <em class="citetitle">The Simpson</em>. For disse få sekundene var selvsagt
beskyttet av opphavsretten, og for å bruke beskyttet materiale må man ha

</p><p>
Else kontaktet <em class="citetitle">Simpson</em>-skaper Matt Groenings kontor
fire og et halvt sekund på et lite fjernsyn, bakerst i et hjørne av
rommet. Hvordan kunne det skade? Groening var glad for å få ha det med i
filmen, men han ba Else om å kontakte Gracie Films, firmaet som produserer

Gracie Films sa også at det var greit, men de, slik som Groening, ønsket å
være forsiktige, og ba Else om å kontakte Fox, konsernet som eide Gracie. Og
Else kontaktet Fox og forklarte situasjonen; at det var snakk om et klipp i
hjørnet i bakgrunnen i ett rom i filmen. Matt Groening hadde allerede gitt

Ellers var sikker på at det var en feil. Han fikk tak i noen som han trodde
var nestleder for lisensiering, Rebecca Herrera. Han forklarte for henne at

</p><p>
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Jeg måtte være sikker på at jeg hadde riktige opplysninger foran

om Wagners Ring Cycle. Som om det ikke var nok, forbløffet Herrera Else med

</p><p>
Men Else hadde ikke penger til å kjøpe lisens for klippet. Så å gjenskape
denne delen av virkeligheten, lå langt utenfor hans budsjett. Like før
dokumentaren skulle slippes, redigerte Else inn et annet klipp på
fjernsynet, et klipp fra en av hans andre filmer <em class="citetitle">The Day After

Det er ingen tvil om at noen, enten det er er Matt Groening eller Fox, eier
rettighetene til <em class="citetitle">The Simpsons</em>. Rettighetene er deres

Alben had a special interest in new technology. He was intrigued by the
emerging market for CD-ROM technology—not to distribute film, but to
do things with film that otherwise would be very difficult. In 1993, he
work of particular actors. The first actor chosen was Clint Eastwood. The
idea was to showcase all of the work of Eastwood, with clips from his films
and interviews with figures important to his career.
-</p><a class="indexterm" name="id3067366"></a><p>
+</p><p>
At that time, Eastwood had made more than fifty films, as an actor and as a
director. Alben began with a series of interviews with Eastwood, asking him
about his career. Because Starwave produced those interviews, it was free to
scripts, and other material relating to the films Eastwood made. Most of his
career was spent at Warner Brothers, and so it was relatively easy to get
permission for that content.

Alben worked for a big company. His company was backed by some of the
richest investors in the world. He therefore had authority and access that
the average Web designer would not have. So if it took him a year, how long
would it take someone else? And how much creativity is never made just

For of course, the two brilliantly talented creators who made this film
hadn't done what Alben did. They hadn't spent a year clearing the rights to
these clips; technically, what they had done violated the law. Of course,

couldn't easily do them legally.

But presentations are just a tiny beginning. Using the Internet and its
archives, musicians are able to string together mixes of sound never before

commentary. A site called Camp Chaos has produced some of the most biting

rules, it doesn't get released.
To some, these stories suggest a solution: Let's alter the mix of rights so
that people are free to build upon our culture. Free to add or mix as they

the few: The costs of negotiating the legal rights for the creative reuse of
content are astronomically high. These costs mirror the costs with fair
to track down permissions so you don't have to rely upon fair use
rights. Either way, the creative process is a process of paying
lawyers—again a privilege, or perhaps a curse, reserved for the few.

The MPAA is the American branch of the international Motion Picture

Walt Disney, Sony Pictures Entertainment, MGM, Paramount Pictures, Twentieth

there is an aspect to the organization's mission that is both the most
radical and the most important. This is the organization's effort,
epitomized in Valenti's every act, to redefine the meaning of
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">creative property.</span>”</span>

In 1982, Valenti's testimony to Congress captured the strategy perfectly:

</p></blockquote></div><p>
The strategy of this rhetoric, like the strategy of most of Valenti's
rhetoric, is brilliant and simple and brilliant because simple. The

This claim has an obvious and powerful intuitive pull. It is stated with

claim of Valenti's. Jack Valenti, however sweet and however brilliant, is

strongly did they love property that they built into the Constitution an
important requirement. If the government takes your property—if it

guarantees that property is, in a certain sense, sacred. It cannot

government pays for the privilege.

The Constitution thus on its face states that these two forms of property

To answer this question, we need to get some perspective on the history of

+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2705918"></a><p>
Norms are a different kind of constraint. They, too, punish an individual
for violating a rule. But the punishment of a norm is imposed by a
community, not (or not only) by the state. There may be no law against
though depending upon the community, it could easily be more harsh than many
of the punishments imposed by the state. The mark of the difference is not
the severity of the rule, but the source of the enforcement.

The market is a third type of constraint. Its constraint is effected through
conditions: You can do X if you pay Y; you'll be paid M if you do N. These
constraints are obviously not independent of law or norms—it is
it is norms that say what is appropriately sold. But given a set of norms,
and a background of property and contract law, the market imposes a
simultaneous constraint upon how an individual or group might behave.

The final point about this simple model should also be fairly clear: While
these four modalities are analytically independent, law has a special role

other words, sometimes operates to increase or decrease the constraint of a
particular modality. Thus, the law might be used to increase taxes on
gasoline, so as to increase the incentives to drive more slowly. The law
more strict—a federal requirement that states decrease the speed
limit, for example—so as to decrease the attractiveness of fast
driving.

These constraints can thus change, and they can be changed. To understand
the effective protection of liberty or protection of property at any
particular moment, we must track these changes over time. A restriction
imposed by one modality might be erased by another. A freedom enabled by one

property law, (2) businesses should adopt innovative marketing techniques,
(3) technologists should push to develop code to protect copyrighted
material, and (4) educators should educate kids to better protect copyright.
-</p><p>
+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2706355"></a><p>
This mixed strategy is just what copyright needed—if it was to
preserve the particular balance that existed before the change induced by
innovation. And I would be the last person to argue that the changing
technology of the Internet has not had a profound effect on the content
industry's way of doing business, or as John Seely Brown describes it, its
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">architecture of revenue.</span>”</span>

But just because a particular interest asks for government support, it
doesn't follow that support should be granted. And just because technology
has weakened a particular way of doing business, it doesn't follow that the
government should intervene to support that old way of doing
business. Kodak, for example, has lost perhaps as much as 20 percent of
their traditional film market to the emerging technologies of digital
-cameras.<sup>[<a name="id3069438" href="#ftn.id3069438" class="footnote">122</a>]</sup> Does anyone believe the

trucks from roads <span class="emphasis"><em>for the purpose of</em></span> protecting the

commercial television? (Maybe by limiting them to function only once a
second, or to switch to only ten channels within an hour?)

The obvious answer to these obviously rhetorical questions is no. In a free
society, with a free market, supported by free enterprise and free trade,
the government's role is not to support one way of doing business against
others. Its role is not to pick winners and protect them against loss. If
the government did this generally, then we would never have any progress. As
Microsoft chairman Bill Gates wrote in 1991, in a memo criticizing software
-patents, <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">established companies have an interest in excluding future

startup, established companies also have the means. (Think RCA and FM
radio.) A world in which competitors with new ideas must fight not only the
market but also the government is a world in which competitors with new
ideas will not succeed. It is a world of stasis and increasingly
concentrated stagnation. It is the Soviet Union under Brezhnev.

</p><p>
Thus, while it is understandable for industries threatened with new
technologies that change the way they do business to look to the government
wary of the request. It is always a bad deal for the government to get into
the business of regulating speech markets. The risks and dangers of that
game are precisely why our framers created the First Amendment to our
-Constitution: <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Congress shall make no law … abridging the

carefully—whether such regulation is justified.
</p><p>

that are being pushed by the copyright warriors are

Hermann Müller won the Nobel Prize for his work demonstrating the
insecticidal properties of DDT. By the 1950s, the insecticide was widely
used around the world to kill disease-carrying pests. It was also used to

to their respective Writings and Discoveries. We can call this the

common law, then there was no simple way to know whether a work published in
the United States was controlled or free. Just as in England, this lingering

Congress abandoned the renewal requirement for all works created before

The effect of these changes on the average duration of copyright is

their copyright. That meant that the average term of copyright in 1973 was

that kind of unfair competition. In 1790, there were 174 publishers in the

market in the United States—publishers.

That much is the obvious part. Any system of copyright would control
competing publishing. But there's a second part to the copyright of today

CliffsNotes can't make an abridgment unless permission is granted. All of
these derivative uses of your original work are controlled by the copyright
work. But whatever <span class="emphasis"><em>that</em></span> wrong is, transforming someone
else's work is a different wrong. Some view transformation as no wrong at
all—they believe that our law, as the framers penned it, should not

Whether or not you go that far, it seems plain that whatever wrong is
involved is fundamentally different from the wrong of direct piracy.

Yet copyright law treats these two different wrongs in the same way. I can
go to court and get an injunction against your pirating my book. I can go to

This again may seem right to you. If I wrote a book, then why should you be
able to write a movie that takes my story and makes money from it without
paying me or crediting me? Or if Disney creates a creature called

because of this single, arbitrary feature of the design of a digital

Now, you might think this is a close case, and I think the courts would
consider it a close case. My point here is to map the change that gives
Disney this power. Before the Internet, Disney couldn't really control how
people got access to their content. Once a video was in the marketplace, the

he wished, including showing portions of it in order to engender sales of
the entire movie video. But with the Internet, it becomes possible for
Disney to centralize control over access to this content. Because each use
of the Internet produces a copy, use on the Internet becomes subject to the
copyright owner's control. The technology expands the scope of effective
control, because the technology builds a copy into every transaction.

tradition of the law and cognizant of the balances that tradition embraced,
who said whether and how the law would restrict your freedom.

On the Internet, however, there is no check on silly rules, because on the
Internet, increasingly, rules are enforced not by a human but by a machine:
Increasingly, the rules of copyright law, as interpreted by the copyright
is code, rather than law, that rules. And the problem with code regulations
is that, unlike law, code has no shame. Code would not get the humor of the
Marx Brothers. The consequence of that is not at all funny.

weakness in an encryption system being developed by the Secure Digital Music

The SDMI coalition had as its goal a technology to enable content owners to
exercise much better control over their content than the Internet, as it

And though an academic paper describing the weakness in a system of
encryption should also be perfectly legal, Felten received a letter from an
RIAA lawyer that read:
Any disclosure of information gained from participating in the Public

In both cases, this weirdly Orwellian law was invoked to control the spread
of information. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act made spreading such
designed to circumvent copyright protection measures. It was designed to ban
those devices, whether or not the use of the copyrighted material made
possible by that circumvention would have been a copyright violation.

Aibopet.com and Felten make the point. The Aibo hack circumvented a
copyright protection system for the purpose of enabling the dog to dance
distributing a circumvention technology. Thus, even though he was not
himself infringing anyone's copyright, his academic paper was enabling
others to infringe others' copyright.

A handgun can be used to shoot a police officer or a child. Most would agree
such a use is bad. Or a handgun can be used for target practice or to

fan fiction about the show. One person would play Spock, another, Captain

Before I had read about chimeras, I would have said they were impossible. A
single person can't have two sets of DNA. The very idea of DNA is that it is
the code of an individual. Yet in fact, not only can two individuals have
the same set of DNA (identical twins), but one person can have two different
-sets of DNA (a chimera). Our understanding of a <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">person</span>”</span> should

the increasing ease with which infractions can be tracked. As users of
file-sharing systems discovered in 2002, it is a trivial matter for
copyright owners to get courts to order Internet service providers to reveal
who has what content. It is as if your cassette tape player transmitted a
list of the songs that you played in the privacy of your own home that
anyone could tune into for whatever reason they chose.

keen to remake the music business. Their goal was not just to facilitate new
ways to get access to content. Their goal was also to facilitate new ways to
recommend music to its users. The idea behind this alternative was to
leverage the revealed preferences of music listeners to recommend new
artists. If you like Lyle Lovett, you're likely to enjoy Bonnie Raitt. And

Now the very same claim could be made about Internet radio. For again, there
is no technical limitation that could restrict the number of Internet radio
stations. The only restrictions on Internet radio are those imposed by the
law. Copyright law is one such law. So the first question we should ask is,
what copyright rules would govern Internet radio?

But here the power of the lobbyists is reversed. Internet radio is a new
industry. The recording artists, on the other hand, have a very powerful

The Internet created the possibility of noncommercial publications of public
domain works. Eldred's is just one example. There are literally thousands of
others. Hundreds of thousands from across the world have discovered this
platform of expression and now use it to share works that are, by law, free
for the taking. This has produced what we might call the

As I said, Eldred lives in New Hampshire. In 1998, Robert Frost's collection
of poems <em class="citetitle">New Hampshire</em> was slated to pass into the
public domain. Eldred wanted to post that collection in his free public
-library. But Congress got in the way. As I described in chapter <a class="xref" href="#property-i" title="Kapittel 10. Kapittel ti: “Eiendom”">10</a>, in 1998, for the

eleventh time in forty years, Congress extended the terms of existing
copyrights—this time by twenty years. Eldred would not be free to add
any works more recent than 1923 to his collection until 2019. Indeed, no
copyrighted work would pass into the public domain until that year (and not
even then, if Congress extends the term again). By contrast, in the same
period, more than 1 million patents will pass into the public domain.

In the Court of Appeals, Eagle Forum was eager to file a brief supporting
our position. Their brief made the argument that became the core claim in
Amendment scholars. There was an exhaustive and uncontroverted brief by the
world's experts in the history of the Progress Clause. And of course, there
was a new brief by Eagle Forum, repeating and strengthening its arguments.

Those briefs framed a legal argument. Then to support the legal argument,
there were a number of powerful briefs by libraries and archives, including

This economists' brief was signed by seventeen economists, including five
Nobel Prize winners, including Ronald Coase, James Buchanan, Milton
Friedman, Kenneth Arrow, and George Akerlof. The economists, as the list of
conclusions were powerful: There was no plausible claim that extending the

The same effort at balance was reflected in the legal team we gathered to
individual rights; my colleague and dean, Kathleen Sullivan, who had argued
many cases in the Court, and who had advised us early on about a First
Amendment strategy; and finally, former solicitor general Charles Fried.

Fried was a special victory for our side. Every other former solicitor

making a choice about which speakers it will favor. Famous and beloved

O'Connor, Justice Scalia, Justice Kennedy, and Justice Thomas. These five
had been the most consistent in limiting Congress's power. They were the
five who had supported the <em class="citetitle">Lopez/Morrison</em> line of
cases that said that an enumerated power had to be interpreted to assure
that Congress's powers had limits.

The Rest were the four Justices who had strongly opposed limits on
Congress's power. These four—Justice Stevens, Justice Souter, Justice
intellectual property cloth. We expected she would agree with the writings
of her daughter: that Congress had the power in this context to do as it
wished, even if what Congress wished made little sense.

+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2716408"></a><p>
Close behind Justice Ginsburg were two justices whom we also viewed as
unlikely allies, though possible surprises. Justice Souter strongly favored
deference to Congress, as did Justice Breyer. But both were also very
sensitive to free speech concerns. And as we strongly believed, there was a
very important free speech argument against these retrospective extensions.

The only vote we could be confident about was that of Justice
Stevens. History will record Justice Stevens as one of the greatest judges
on this Court. His votes are consistently eclectic, which just means that no
for limits in the context of intellectual property generally. We were fairly
confident he would recognize limits here.

these five and get at least a majority to go our way. Thus, the single
overriding argument that animated our claim rested on the Conservatives'
<em class="citetitle">Lopez</em> case, under the government's argument here,
Congress would always have unlimited power to extend existing terms. If
anything was plain about Congress's power under the Progress Clause, it was

There was some truth to the government's claim, but not much. We certainly
agreed that Congress had extended existing terms in 1831 and in 1909. And of
course, in 1962, Congress began extending existing terms
regularly—eleven times in forty years.

I was convinced that to win, I had to keep the Court focused on a single
point: that if this extension is permitted, then there is no limit to the
effectively unlimited; going with us would give Congress a clear line to

He may have argued many cases before this Court, I thought, but he didn't
understand its soul. As a clerk, I had seen the Justices do the right
thing—not because of politics but because it was right. As a law
right thing—not because of politics but because it is right. As I
listened to Ayer's plea for passion in pressing politics, I understood his
point, and I rejected it. Our argument was right. That was enough. Let the
-politicians learn to see that it was also good. The night before the

That was a correct answer, but it wasn't the right answer. The right answer
was instead that there was an obvious and profound harm. Any number of

Justices Breyer and Stevens wrote very strong dissents. Stevens's opinion
was crafted internal to the law: He argued that the tradition of
intellectual property law should not support this unjustified extension of
Clause could come to mean totally different things depending upon whether
the words were about patents or copyrights. The Court let Justice Stevens's

Justice Breyer's opinion, perhaps the best opinion he has ever written, was

Most lawyers, and most law professors, have little patience for idealism
about courts in general and this Supreme Court in particular. Most have a
much more pragmatic view. When Don Ayer said that this case would be won
in that effort to persuade; but I refused to stand before this audience and
try to persuade with the passion I had used elsewhere. It was not the basis
on which a court should decide the issue.

After the argument and after the decision, Peter said to me, and publicly,
that he was wrong. But if indeed that Court could not have been persuaded,
then that is all the evidence that's needed to know that here again Peter
was right. Either I was not ready to argue this case in a way that would do
some good or they were not ready to hear this case in a way that would do

It was an act of contrition. During the whole of the flight from San
Francisco to Washington, I had heard over and over again in my head the same
advice from Don Ayer: You need to make them see why it is important. And
alternating with that command was the question of Justice Kennedy:

access and the spread of knowledge. Leave it for as long as Congress allows
for those works where its worth is at least $1. But for everything else, let
the content go.

The reaction to this idea was amazingly strong. Steve Forbes endorsed it in
an editorial. I received an avalanche of e-mail and letters expressing
support. When you focus the issue on lost creativity, people can see the
is often impossibly hard to locate copyright owners to ask permission to use
or license their work. This system would lower these costs, by establishing
at least one registry where copyright owners could be identified.

The fight against formalities achieved its first real victory in Berlin in
1908. International copyright lawyers amended the Berne Convention in 1908,
to require copyright terms of life plus fifty years, as well as the
claim as well. There was no reason that creative property should be a
second-class form of property. If a carpenter builds a table, his rights
over the table don't depend upon filing a form with the government. He has

But at this stage, the lobbyists began to intervene. Jack Valenti and the
MPAA general counsel came to the congresswoman's office to give the view of
about what this debate is really about.

-The MPAA argued first that Congress had <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">firmly rejected the central

+was true, but irrelevant, as Congress's <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">firm rejection</span>»</span> had
occurred long before the Internet made subsequent uses much more likely.
Second, they argued that the proposal would harm poor copyright
owners—apparently those who could not afford the $1 fee. Third, they
work covered by copyright law that is still commercially valuable, but again
this was irrelevant, as the proposal would not cut off the extended term
unless the $1 fee was not paid. Fourth, the MPAA argued that the bill would

+impose <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">enormous</span>»</span> costs, since a registration system is not
free. True enough, but those costs are certainly less than the costs of
clearing the rights for a copyright whose owner is not known. Fifth, they
worried about the risks if the copyright to a story underlying a film were
claim in any case—unless they know about a copyright, they're not
likely to.

But when the copyright owners oppose a proposal such as the Eldred Act,
then, finally, there is an example that lays bare the naked selfinterest
driving this war. This act would free an extraordinary range of content that
is otherwise unused. It wouldn't interfere with any copyright owner's desire
to exercise continued control over his content. It would simply liberate

-In 1997, South Africa tried one tack. It passed a law to allow the
-importation of patented medicines that had been produced or sold in another
-nation's market with the consent of the patent owner. For example, if the
-drug was sold in India, it could be imported into Africa from India. This is
-called <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">parallel importation,</span>”</span> and it is generally permitted
-under international trade law and is specifically permitted within the
-European Union.<sup>[<a name="id3080581" href="#ftn.id3080581" class="footnote">196</a>]</sup>
-</p><p>
-However, the United States government opposed the bill. Indeed, more than
-opposed. As the International Intellectual Property Association
-characterized it, <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">The U.S. government pressured South Africa …
-not to permit compulsory licensing or parallel imports.</span>”</span><sup>[<a name="id3077194" href="#ftn.id3077194" class="footnote">197</a>]</sup> Through the Office of the United States Trade
-Representative, the government asked South Africa to change the
-law—and to add pressure to that request, in 1998, the USTR listed
-South Africa for possible trade sanctions. That same year, more than forty
-pharmaceutical companies began proceedings in the South African courts to
-challenge the government's actions. The United States was then joined by
-other governments from the EU. Their claim, and the claim of the
-pharmaceutical companies, was that South Africa was violating its
-obligations under international law by discriminating against a particular
-kind of patent— pharmaceutical patents. The demand of these
-governments, with the United States in the lead, was that South Africa
-respect these patents as it respects any other patent, regardless of any
-effect on the treatment of AIDS within South Africa.<sup>[<a name="id3080637" href="#ftn.id3080637" class="footnote">198</a>]</sup>
+I 1997 forsøkte Sør-Afrika seg på en tilnærming. Landet vedtok en lov som
+tillot import av patenterte medisiner som hadde blitt produsert og solgt i
+en annen nasjons marked med godkjenning fra patenteieren. For eksempel,
+hvis medisinen var solgt i India, så kunne den bli importert inn til Afrika
+fra India. Dette kalles <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">parallellimport</span>»</span> og er generelt
+tillatt i internasjonal handelslovgivning, og spesifikt tillatt i den
+europeiske union.<sup>[<a name="id2718191" href="#ftn.id2718191" class="footnote">196</a>]</sup>
+</p><p>
+Men USA var imot lovendringen. Og de nøyde seg ikke med å være imot. Som
+International Intellectual Property Association karakteriserte det,
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">Myndighetene i USA presset Sør-Afrika … til å ikke tillate
+tvungen lisensiering eller parallellimport</span>»</span><sup>[<a name="id2714558" href="#ftn.id2714558" class="footnote">197</a>]</sup> Gjennom kontoret til USAs handelsrepresentant
+(USTR), ba myndighetene Sør-Afrika om å endre loven—og for å legge
+press bak den forespørselen, listet USTR i 1998 opp Sør-Afrika som et land
+som burde vurderes for handelsrestriksjoner. Samme år gikk mer enn førti
+farmasiselskaper til retten for å utfordre myndighetenes handlinger. USA
+fikk selskap av andre myndigheter fra EU. Deres påstand, og påstanden til
+farmasiselskapene, var at Sør-Afrika brøt sine internasjonale forpliktelser
+ved å diskriminere mot en bestemt type patenter—farmasøytiske
+patenter. Kravet fra disse myndighetene, med USA i spissen, var at
+Sør-Afrika skulle respektere disse patentene på samme måte som alle andre
+patenter, uavhengig av eventuell effekt på behandlingen av AIDS i
+Sør-Afrika.<sup>[<a name="id2718260" href="#ftn.id2718260" class="footnote">198</a>]</sup>
</p><p>
Vi bør sette intervensjonen til USA i sammenheng. Det er ingen tvil om at
patenter ikke er den viktigste årsaken til at Afrikanere ikke har tilgang
parallellimport av disse medisinene ville ikke øke salget til de amerikanske
selskapene betydelig.

-Instead, the argument in favor of restricting this flow of information,

+La oss ta et skritt tilbake for et øyeblikk. En gang om tredve år vil våre
+barn se tilbake på oss og spørre, hvordan kunne vi la dette skje? Hvordan
+kunne vi tillate å gjennomføre en politikk hvis direkte kostnad var få 15
+til 30 millioner afrikanere til å dø raskere, og hvis eneste virkelige
+fordel var å opprettholde <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">ukrenkeligheten</span>»</span> til en idé? Hva
+slags berettigelse kan noen sinne eksistere for en politikk som resulterer i
+så mange døde? Hva slags galskap er det egentlig som tillater at så mange
+dør for slik en abstraksjon?

-A different problem, however, could not be overcome. This is the fear of the
-grandstanding politician who would call the presidents of the drug companies
-before a Senate or House hearing, and ask, <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">How is it you can sell
-this HIV drug in Africa for only $1 a pill, but the same drug would cost an
-American $1,500?</span>”</span> Because there is no <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">sound bite</span>”</span>
-answer to that question, its effect would be to induce regulation of prices
-in America. The drug companies thus avoid this spiral by avoiding the first
-step. They reinforce the idea that property should be sacred. They adopt a
-rational strategy in an irrational context, with the unintended consequence
-that perhaps millions die. And that rational strategy thus becomes framed in
-terms of this ideal—the sanctity of an idea called <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">intellectual
-property.</span>”</span>
+Et annet problem kan derimot ikke løses. Det er frykten for at en politiker
+som skal vise seg og kaller inn lederne hos medisinprodusentene til høring i
+senatet eller representantenes hus og spør, <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">hvordan har det seg at du
+kan selge HIV-medisinen i Afrika for bare $1 pr. pille, mens samme pille
+koster en amerikansker $1 500?</span>»</span> Da det ikke finnes et
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">kjapt svar</span>»</span> på det spørsmålet, ville effekten bli regulering
+av priser i Amerika. Medisinprodusentene unngår dermed denne spiralen ved å
+sikre at det første steget ikke tas. De forsterker idéen om at
+eierrettigheter skal være ukrenkelige. De legger seg på en rasjonell
+strategi i en irrasjonell omgivelse, med den utilsiktede konsekvens at
+kanskje millioner dør. Og den rasjonelle strategien rammes dermed inn ved
+hjel av dette ideal—helligheten til en idé som kalles
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">immaterielle rettigheter</span>»</span>.

+<span class="strong"><strong>I august 2003</strong></span> brøt en kamp ut i USA om en
+avgjørelse fra World Intellectual Property Organiation om å avlyse et
+møte.<sup>[<a name="id2718706" href="#ftn.id2718706" class="footnote">200</a>]</sup> På forespørsel fra en lang rekke
+med interressenter hadde WIPO bestemt å avholde et møte for å diskutere
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">åpne og samarbeidende prosjekter for å skape goder for
+felleskapet</span>»</span>. Disse prosjektene som hadde lyktes i å produsere goder
+for fellesskapet uten å basere seg eksklusivt på bruken av proprietære
+immaterielle rettigheter. Eksempler inkluderer internettet og verdensveven,
+begge som ble utviklet på grunnlag av protokoller i allemannseie. Det hadde
+med en begynnende trend for å støtte åpne akademiske tidsskrifter, og
+inkluderte Public Library of Science-prosjektet som jeg beskriver i

Formålet med møtet var å vurdere denne rekken av prosjekter fra et felles
perspektiv: at ingen av disse prosjektene hadde som grunnlag immateriell
ekstremisme. I stedet, hos alle disse, ble immaterielle rettigheter
begrensninger på hvordan proprietære krav kan bli brukt.
</p><p>
Dermed var, fra perspektivet i denne boken, denne konferansen
-ideell.<sup>[<a name="id3081123" href="#ftn.id3081123" class="footnote">201</a>]</sup> Prosjektene innenfor temaet var
+ideell.<sup>[<a name="id2718848" href="#ftn.id2718848" class="footnote">201</a>]</sup> Prosjektene innenfor temaet var
både kommersielle og ikkekommersielle verker. De involverte i hovedsak
vitenskapen, men fra mange perspektiver. Og WIPO var et ideelt sted for
denne diskusjonen, siden WIPO var den fremstående internasjonale aktør som
drev med immaterielle rettighetsspørsmål.
</p><p>
-Indeed, I was once publicly scolded for not recognizing this fact about
-WIPO. In February 2003, I delivered a keynote address to a preparatory
-conference for the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS). At a
-press conference before the address, I was asked what I would say. I
-responded that I would be talking a little about the importance of balance
-in intellectual property for the development of an information society. The
-moderator for the event then promptly interrupted to inform me and the
-assembled reporters that no question about intellectual property would be
-discussed by WSIS, since those questions were the exclusive domain of
-WIPO. In the talk that I had prepared, I had actually made the issue of
-intellectual property relatively minor. But after this astonishing
-statement, I made intellectual property the sole focus of my talk. There was
-no way to talk about an <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Information Society</span>”</span> unless one also
-talked about the range of information and culture that would be free. My
-talk did not make my immoderate moderator very happy. And she was no doubt
-correct that the scope of intellectual property protections was ordinarily
-the stuff of WIPO. But in my view, there couldn't be too much of a
-conversation about how much intellectual property is needed, since in my
-view, the very idea of balance in intellectual property had been lost.
-</p><p>
-So whether or not WSIS can discuss balance in intellectual property, I had
-thought it was taken for granted that WIPO could and should. And thus the
-meeting about <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">open and collaborative projects to create public
-goods</span>”</span> seemed perfectly appropriate within the WIPO agenda.
-</p><p>
-But there is one project within that list that is highly controversial, at
-least among lobbyists. That project is <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">open source and free
-software.</span>”</span> Microsoft in particular is wary of discussion of the
-subject. From its perspective, a conference to discuss open source and free
-software would be like a conference to discuss Apple's operating
-system. Both open source and free software compete with Microsoft's
-software. And internationally, many governments have begun to explore
-requirements that they use open source or free software, rather than
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">proprietary software,</span>”</span> for their own internal uses.
-</p><p>
-I don't mean to enter that debate here. It is important only to make clear
-that the distinction is not between commercial and noncommercial
-software. There are many important companies that depend fundamentally upon
-open source and free software, IBM being the most prominent. IBM is
-increasingly shifting its focus to the GNU/Linux operating system, the most
-famous bit of <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">free software</span>”</span>—and IBM is emphatically a
-commercial entity. Thus, to support <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">open source and free
-software</span>”</span> is not to oppose commercial entities. It is, instead, to
-support a mode of software development that is different from
-Microsoft's.<sup>[<a name="id3081224" href="#ftn.id3081224" class="footnote">202</a>]</sup> <a class="indexterm" name="id3081276"></a> <a class="indexterm" name="id3081282"></a>
-<a class="indexterm" name="id3081291"></a> <a class="indexterm" name="id3081297"></a>
-</p><p>
-
-More important for our purposes, to support <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">open source and free
-software</span>”</span> is not to oppose copyright. <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Open source and free
-software</span>”</span> is not software in the public domain. Instead, like
-Microsoft's software, the copyright owners of free and open source software
-insist quite strongly that the terms of their software license be respected
-by adopters of free and open source software. The terms of that license are
-no doubt different from the terms of a proprietary software license. Free
-software licensed under the General Public License (GPL), for example,
-requires that the source code for the software be made available by anyone
-who modifies and redistributes the software. But that requirement is
-effective only if copyright governs software. If copyright did not govern
-software, then free software could not impose the same kind of requirements
-on its adopters. It thus depends upon copyright law just as Microsoft does.
+Faktisk fikk jeg en gang offentlig kjeft for å ikke anerkjenne dette faktum
+om WIPO. I februar 2003 leverte jeg et hovedinnlegg på en forberedende
+konferanse for World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS). På en
+pressekonferanse før innlegget, ble jeg spurt hva jeg skulle snakke om. Jeg
+svarte at jeg skulle snakke litt om viktigheten av balanse rundt
+immaterielle verdier for utviklingen av informasjonssamfunnet. Ordstyreren
+på arrangementet avbrøt meg da brått for å informere meg og journalistene
+tilstede at ingen spørsmål rundt immaterielle verdier ville bli diskutert av
+WSIS, da slike spørsmål kun skulle diskuteres i WIPO. I innlegget jeg hadde
+forberedt var temaet om immaterielle verdier en forholdvis liten del av det
+hele. Men etter denne forbløffende uttalelsen, gjorde jeg immaterielle
+verdier til hovedfokus for mitt innlegg. Det var ikke mulig å snakke om et
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">informasjonssamfunn</span>»</span> uten at en også snakket om andelen av
+informasjon og kultur som ikke er vernet av opphavsretten. Mitt innlegg
+gjorde ikke min overivrige moderator veldig glad. Og hun hadde uten tvil
+rett i at omfanget til vern av immaterielle rettigheter normalt hørte inn
+under WIPO. Men etter mitt syn, kunne det ikke bli for mye diskusjon om
+hvor mye immaterielle rettigheter som trengs, siden etter mitt syn, hadde
+selve idéen om en balanse rundt immaterielle rettigheter hadde gått tapt.
+</p><p>
+Så uansett om WSIS kan diskutere balanse i intellektuell eiendom eller ikke,
+så hadde jeg trodd det var tatt for gitt at WIPO kunne og burde. Og dermed
+møtet om <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">åpne og samarbeidende prosjekter for å skape
+fellesgoder</span>»</span> virker å passe perfekt for WIPOs agenda.
+</p><p>
+Men det er ett prosjekt i listen som er svært kontroversielt, i hvert fall
+blant lobbyister. Dette prosjektet er <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">åpen kildekode og fri
+programvare</span>»</span>. Microsoft spesielt er skeptisk til diskusjon om
+emnet. Fra deres perspektiv, ville en konferanse for å diskutere åpen
+kildekode og fri programvare være som en konferanse for å diskutere Apples
+operativsystem. Både åpen kildekode og fri programvare konkurrerer med
+Microsofts programvare. Og internasjonalt har mange myndigheter begynt å
+utforske krav om at de skal bruke åpen kildekode eller fri programvare, i
+stedet for <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">proprietær programvare</span>»</span>, til sine egne interne
+behov.
+</p><p>
+Jeg mener ikke å gå inn i den debatten her. Det er viktig kun for å gjøre
+det klart at skillet ikke er mellom kommersiell og ikke-kommersiell
+programvare. Det er mange viktige selskaper som er fundamentalt avhengig av
+fri programvare, der IBM er den mest fremtredende. IBM har i stadig større
+grad skiftet sitt fokus til GNU/Linux-operativsystemet, det mest berømte
+biten av <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">fri programvare</span>»</span>—og IBM er helt klart en
+kommersiell aktør. Dermed er det å støtte <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">fri programvare</span>»</span>
+ikke å motsette seg kommersielle aktører. Det er i stedet å støtte en måte
+å drive programvareutvikling som er forskjellig fra Microsofts.<sup>[<a name="id2718991" href="#ftn.id2718991" class="footnote">202</a>]</sup> <a class="indexterm" name="id2719052"></a> <a class="indexterm" name="id2719058"></a> <a class="indexterm" name="id2719068"></a>
+<a class="indexterm" name="id2719074"></a>
+</p><p>
+
+Mer viktig for våre formål, er at å støtte <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">åpen kildekode og fri
+programvare</span>»</span> ikke er å motsette seg opphavsrett. <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">Åpen
+kildekode og fri programvare</span>»</span> er ikke programvare uten
+opphavsrettslig vern. Istedet, på samme måte som programvare fra Microsoft,
+insisterer opphavsrettsinnehaverne av fri programvare ganske sterkt at
+vilkårene i deres programvarelisens blir respektert av de som tar i bruk fri
+programvare. Vilkårene i den lisensen er uten tvil forskjellig fra
+vilkårene i en proprietær programvarelisens. For eksempel krever fri
+programvare lisensiert med den generelle offentlige lisensen (GPL), at
+kildekoden for programvare gjøres tilgjengelig for alle som endrer og
+videredistribuerer programvaren. Men dette kravet er kun effektivt hvis
+opphavsrett råder over programvare. Hvis opphavsretten ikke råder over
+programvare, så kunne ikke fri programvare pålegge slike krav på de som tar
+i bruk programvaren. Den er dermed like avhengig av opphavsrettsloven som
+Microsoft.
</p><p>
Det er dermed forståelig at Microsoft, som utviklere av proprietær
programvare, gikk imot et slikt WIPO-møte, og like fullt forståelig at de
ganske riktig, det er akkurat dette som i følge rapporter hadde skjedd. I
følge Jonathan Krim i <em class="citetitle">Washington Post</em>, lyktes
Microsofts lobbyister i å få USAs myndigheter til å legge ned veto mot et
-slikt møte.<sup>[<a name="id3081352" href="#ftn.id3081352" class="footnote">203</a>]</sup> Og uten støtte fra USA ble
-møtet avlyst. <a class="indexterm" name="id3081370"></a>
+slikt møte.<sup>[<a name="id2719150" href="#ftn.id2719150" class="footnote">203</a>]</sup> Og uten støtte fra USA ble
+møtet avlyst. <a class="indexterm" name="id2719169"></a>
</p><p>
Jeg klandrer ikke Microsoft for å gjøre det de kan for å fremme sine egne
interesser i samsvar med loven. Og lobbyvirksomhet mot myndighetene er
åpenbart i samsvar med loven. Det er ikke noe overraskende her med deres
lobbyvirksomhet, og ikke veldig overraskende at den mektigste
programvareprodusenten i USA har lyktes med sin lobbyvirksomhet.
-</p><p>
-What was surprising was the United States government's reason for opposing
-the meeting. Again, as reported by Krim, Lois Boland, acting director of
-international relations for the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, explained
-that <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">open-source software runs counter to the mission of WIPO, which
-is to promote intellectual-property rights.</span>”</span> She is quoted as saying,
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">To hold a meeting which has as its purpose to disclaim or waive such
-rights seems to us to be contrary to the goals of WIPO.</span>”</span>
+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2719191"></a><p>
+Det som var overraskende var USAs regjerings begrunnelse for å være imot
+møtet. Igjen, sitert av Krim, forklarte Lois Boland, direktør for
+internasjonale forbindelser ved USAs patent og varemerkekontor, at
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">programvare med åpen kildekode går imot til formålet til WIPO, som er
+å fremme immaterielle rettigheter.</span>»</span>. Hun skal i følge sitatet ha
+sagt, <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">Å holde et møte som har som formål å fraskrive seg eller
+frafalle slike rettigheter synes for oss å være i strid med formålene til
+WIPO.</span>»</span>
</p><p>
Disse utsagnene er forbløffende på flere nivåer.
</p><p>
-First, they are just flat wrong. As I described, most open source and free
-software relies fundamentally upon the intellectual property right called
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">copyright</span>”</span>. Without it, restrictions imposed by those
-licenses wouldn't work. Thus, to say it <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">runs counter</span>”</span> to the
-mission of promoting intellectual property rights reveals an extraordinary
-gap in understanding—the sort of mistake that is excusable in a
-first-year law student, but an embarrassment from a high government official
-dealing with intellectual property issues.
-</p><p>
-Second, who ever said that WIPO's exclusive aim was to
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">promote</span>”</span> intellectual property maximally? As I had been
-scolded at the preparatory conference of WSIS, WIPO is to consider not only
-how best to protect intellectual property, but also what the best balance of
-intellectual property is. As every economist and lawyer knows, the hard
-question in intellectual property law is to find that balance. But that
-there should be limits is, I had thought, uncontested. One wants to ask
-Ms. Boland, are generic drugs (drugs based on drugs whose patent has
-expired) contrary to the WIPO mission? Does the public domain weaken
-intellectual property? Would it have been better if the protocols of the
-Internet had been patented?
-</p><p>
-Third, even if one believed that the purpose of WIPO was to maximize
-intellectual property rights, in our tradition, intellectual property rights
-are held by individuals and corporations. They get to decide what to do with
-those rights because, again, they are <span class="emphasis"><em>their</em></span> rights. If
-they want to <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">waive</span>”</span> or <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">disclaim</span>”</span> their rights,
-that is, within our tradition, totally appropriate. When Bill Gates gives
-away more than $20 billion to do good in the world, that is not inconsistent
-with the objectives of the property system. That is, on the contrary, just
-what a property system is supposed to be about: giving individuals the right
-to decide what to do with <span class="emphasis"><em>their</em></span> property. <a class="indexterm" name="id3081480"></a>
-</p><p>
-
-When Ms. Boland says that there is something wrong with a meeting
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">which has as its purpose to disclaim or waive such rights,</span>”</span>
-she's saying that WIPO has an interest in interfering with the choices of
-the individuals who own intellectual property rights. That somehow, WIPO's
-objective should be to stop an individual from <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">waiving</span>”</span> or
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">disclaiming</span>”</span> an intellectual property right. That the interest
-of WIPO is not just that intellectual property rights be maximized, but that
-they also should be exercised in the most extreme and restrictive way
-possible.
-</p><p>
-There is a history of just such a property system that is well known in the
-Anglo-American tradition. It is called <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">feudalism.</span>”</span> Under
-feudalism, not only was property held by a relatively small number of
-individuals and entities. And not only were the rights that ran with that
-property powerful and extensive. But the feudal system had a strong interest
-in assuring that property holders within that system not weaken feudalism by
-liberating people or property within their control to the free
-market. Feudalism depended upon maximum control and concentration. It fought
-any freedom that might interfere with that control.

+For det første er de ganske enkelt ikke riktige. Som jeg beskrev, er det
+meste av åpen kildekode og fri programvare fundamentalt avhengig av den
+immaterielle retten kalt <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">opphavsrett</span>»</span>. Uten den vil
+begrensningene definert av disse lisensene ikke fungere. Dermed er det å si
+at de <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">går imot</span>»</span> formålet om å fremme immaterielle rettigheter
+å avsløre en ekstraordinær mangel på forståelse—den type feil som er
+tilgivelig hos en førsteårs jusstudent, men pinlig fra en høyt plassert
+statstjenestemann som håndterer utfordringer rundt immaterielle rettigheter.
+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2719250"></a><p>
+For det andre, hvem har noen gang hevdet at WIPOs eksklusive mål var å
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">fremme</span>»</span> immaterielle rettigheter maksimalt? Som jeg fikk
+kjeft om på den forberedende konferansen til WSIS, skal WIPO vurdere ikke
+bare hvordan best beskytte immaterielle rettigheter, men også hva som er den
+beste balansen rundt immaterielle rettigheter. Som enhver økonom og advokat
+vet, er det vanskelige spørsmålet i immaterielle rettighetsjuss å finne den
+balansen. Men at det skulle være en grense, trodde jeg, var ubestridt. Man
+ønsker å spørre Ms. Boland om generelle medisiner (medisiner basert på
+medisiner med patenter som er utløpt) i strid med WIPOs oppdrag? Svekker
+allemannseie immaterielle rettigheter? Ville det vært bedre om internettets
+protokoller hadde vært patentert?
+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2719288"></a><p>
+For det tredje, selv om en tror at formålet med WIPO var å maksimere
+immaterielle rettigheter, så innehas immaterielle rettigheter, i vår
+tradisjon, av individer og selskaper. De får bestemme hva som skal gjøres
+med disse rettighetene, igjen fordi det er <span class="emphasis"><em>de</em></span> som eier
+rettighetene. Hvis de ønsker å <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">frafalle</span>»</span> eller
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">frasi</span>»</span> seg sine rettigheter, så er det helt etter boka i vår
+tradisjon. Når Bill Gates gir bort mer enn $20 milliarder til gode formål,
+så er ikke det uforenelig med målene til eiendomssystemet. Det er heller
+tvert i mot, akkurat hva eiendomssysstemet er ment å oppnå, at individer har
+retten til å bestemme hva de vil gjøre med <span class="emphasis"><em>sin</em></span> eiendom.
+</p><a class="indexterm" name="idxboland"></a><p>
+
+Når Ms. Boland sier at det er noe galt med et møte <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">som har som sitt
+formål å fraskrive eller frafalle slike rettigheter</span>»</span>, så sier hun at
+WIPO har en interesse i å påvirke valgene til enkeltpersoner som eier
+immaterielle rettigheter. At på en eller annen WIPOs oppdrag bør være å
+stoppe individer fra å <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">fraskrive</span>»</span> eller
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">frafalle</span>»</span> seg sine immaterielle rettigheter. At interessen
+til WIPO ikke bare er maksimale immaterielle rettigheter, men også at de
+skal utøves på den mest ekstreme og restriktive mulig måten.
+</p><p>
+Det er en historie om akkurat et slikt eierskapssystem som er velkjent i den
+anglo-amerikansk tradisjon. Det kalles <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">føydalisme</span>»</span>. Under
+føydalismen var eiendommer ikke bare kontrollert av et relativt lite antall
+individer og aktører. Men det føydale systemet hadde en sterk interesse i å
+sikre at landeier i systemet ikke svekke føydalismen ved å frigjøre folkene
+og eiendomene som de kontrollerte til det frie markedet. Føydalismen var
+avhengig av maksimal kontroll og konsentrasjon. Det sloss mot enhver frihet
+som kunne forstyrre denne kontrollen.
+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2719402"></a><a class="indexterm" name="id2719409"></a><p>
Som Peter Drahos og John Braithwaite beskriver, dette er nøyaktig det valget
-vi nå gjør om immaterielle rettigheter.<sup>[<a name="id3081547" href="#ftn.id3081547" class="footnote">204</a>]</sup>
+vi nå gjør om immaterielle rettigheter.<sup>[<a name="id2719422" href="#ftn.id2719422" class="footnote">204</a>]</sup>
Vi kommer til å få et informasjonssamfunn. Så mye er sikkert. Vårt eneste
valg nå er hvorvidt dette informasjonssamfunnet skal være
<span class="emphasis"><em>fritt</em></span> eller <span class="emphasis"><em>føydalt</em></span>. Trenden er
kommentar som gjorde meg trist. En anonym kommentator skrev,

Jeg gikk glipp av ironien først gangen jeg leste den. Jeg lese den raskt og
trodde forfatteren støttet idéen om at det våre myndigheter burde gjøre var
illusjon om ekstremismen hos våre myndigheter, uansett om de er
republikanere eller demokrater. Min eneste tilsynelatende illusjon er
hvorvidt våre myndigheter bør snakke sant eller ikke.)
-</p><p>
-Obviously, however, the poster was not supporting that idea. Instead, the
-poster was ridiculing the very idea that in the real world, the
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">goal</span>”</span> of a government should be <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">to promote the right
-balance</span>”</span> of intellectual property. That was obviously silly to
-him. And it obviously betrayed, he believed, my own silly
-utopianism. <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Typical for an academic,</span>”</span> the poster might well
-have continued.
+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2719513"></a><p>
+Det var derimot åpenbart at den som postet meldingen ikke støttet idéen. I
+stedet latterliggjorde forfatteren selve idéen om at i den virkelig verden
+skulle <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">målet</span>»</span> til myndighetene være <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">å fremme den
+riktige balanse</span>»</span> for immaterielle rettigheter. Det var åpenbart
+tåpelig for ham. Og det avslørte åpenbart, trodde han, min egen tåpelige
+utopisme. <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">Typisk for en akademiker</span>»</span>, kunne forfatteren like
+gjerne ha fortsatt.
</p><p>
Jeg forstår kritikken av akademisk utopisme. Jeg mener også at utopisme er
tåpelig, og jeg vil være blant de første til å gjøre narr av de absurde
urealistiske idealer til akademikere gjennom historien (og ikke bare i vårt
eget lands historie).
</p><p>
-But when it has become silly to suppose that the role of our government
-should be to <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">seek balance,</span>”</span> then count me with the silly, for
-that means that this has become quite serious indeed. If it should be
-obvious to everyone that the government does not seek balance, that the
-government is simply the tool of the most powerful lobbyists, that the idea
-of holding the government to a different standard is absurd, that the idea
-of demanding of the government that it speak truth and not lies is just
-naïve, then who have we, the most powerful democracy in the world,
-become?
+Men når det har blitt dumt å anta at rollen til våre myndigheter bør være å
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">oppnå balanse</span>»</span>, da kan du regne meg blant de dumme, for det
+betyr at dette faktisk har blitt ganske seriøst. Hvis det bør være åpenbart
+for alle at myndighetene ikke søker å oppnå balanse, at myndighetene ganske
+enkelt et verktøy for de mektigste lobbyistene, at idéen om å forvente bedre
+av myndighetene er absurd, at idéen om å kreve at myndighetene snakker sant
+og ikke lyver bare er naiv, hva har da vi, det mektigste demokratiet i
+verden, blitt?
</p><p>
Det kan være galskap å forvente at en mektig myndigshetsperson skal si
mer enn å tjene de mektigste interesser. Det kan være galskap å argumentere
for å bevare en tradisjon som har vært en del av vår tradisjon for
mesteparten av vår historie—fri kultur.

-It is therefore significant that so many would rally to demand competition
-and increased diversity. Still, if the rally is understood as being about
-bigness alone, it is not terribly surprising. We Americans have a long
-history of fighting <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">big,</span>”</span> wisely or not. That we could be
-motivated to fight <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">big</span>”</span> again is not something new.
+Det er derfor betydningsfullt at så mange vil kjempe for å kreve konkurranse
+og økt mangfold. Likevel, hvis kampanjen blir forstått til å kun gjelde

-It would be something new, and something very important, if an equal number

-muscle to think critically about the scope of anything called

+Det ville vært noe nytt, og noe veldig viktig, hvis like mange kan være med
+på en kampanje for å bekjempe økende ekstremisme bygget inn i idéen om
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">intellektuell eiendom</span>»</span>. Ikke fordi balanse er fremmed for vår

The mistake here is the error of the excluded middle. There are extremes in

</p><p>
When the Internet was first born, its initial architecture effectively
-tilted in the <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">no rights reserved</span>”</span> direction. Content could be
+tilted in the <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">no rights reserved</span>»</span> direction. Content could be
copied perfectly and cheaply; rights could not easily be controlled. Thus,
regardless of anyone's desire, the effective regime of copyright under the

+Content was <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">taken</span>»</span> regardless of the rights. Any rights were
effectively unprotected.
</p><p>
This initial character produced a reaction (opposite, but not quite equal)
legislation, litigation, and changes to the network's design, copyright
holders have been able to change the essential character of the environment
of the original Internet. If the original architecture made the effective
-default <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">no rights reserved,</span>”</span> the future architecture will make
-the effective default <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">all rights reserved.</span>”</span> The architecture
+default <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">no rights reserved,</span>»</span> the future architecture will make
+the effective default <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">all rights reserved.</span>»</span> The architecture
and law that surround the Internet's design will increasingly produce an
-environment where all use of content requires permission. The <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">cut
-and paste</span>”</span> world that defines the Internet today will become a
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">get permission to cut and paste</span>”</span> world that is a creator's

+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">get permission to cut and paste</span>»</span> world that is a creator's
nightmare.
</p><p>
What's needed is a way to say something in the middle—neither
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">all rights reserved</span>”</span> nor <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">no rights reserved</span>”</span> but
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">some rights reserved</span>”</span>— and thus a way to respect

+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">some rights reserved</span>»</span>— and thus a way to respect
copyrights but enable creators to free content as they see fit. In other
words, we need a way to restore a set of freedoms that we could just take
for granted before.

If you step back from the battle I've been describing here, you will
recognize this problem from other contexts. Think about privacy. Before the
Internet, most of us didn't have to worry much about data about our lives
that we broadcast to the world. If you walked into a bookstore and browsed
through some of the works of Karl Marx, you didn't need to worry about
explaining your browsing habits to your neighbors or boss. The
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">privacy</span>”</span> of your browsing habits was assured.

+Well, if we think in terms of the modalities I described in chapter <a class="xref" href="#property-i" title="Kapittel ti: «Eiendom»">10</a>, your privacy was
assured because of an inefficient architecture for gathering data and hence
a market constraint (cost) on anyone who wanted to gather that data. If you
were a suspected spy for North Korea, working for the CIA, no doubt your
for most of us (again, we can hope), spying doesn't pay. The highly
inefficient architecture of real space means we all enjoy a fairly robust
amount of privacy. That privacy is guaranteed to us by friction. Not by law
-(there is no law protecting <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">privacy</span>”</span> in public places), and in
+(there is no law protecting <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">privacy</span>»</span> in public places), and in
many places, not by norms (snooping and gossip are just fun), but instead,
by the costs that friction imposes on anyone who would want to spy.

Enter the Internet, where the cost of tracking browsing in particular has
become quite tiny. If you're a customer at Amazon, then as you browse the
pages, Amazon collects the data about what you've looked at. You know this
-because at the side of the page, there's a list of <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">recently
-viewed</span>”</span> pages. Now, because of the architecture of the Net and the
+because at the side of the page, there's a list of <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">recently

</p><p>
Amazon, of course, is not the problem. But we might begin to worry about
libraries. If you're one of those crazy lefties who thinks that people
-should have the <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">right</span>”</span> to browse in a library without the
+should have the <span class="quote">«<span class="quote">right</span>»</span> to browse in a library without the
government knowing which books you look at (I'm one of those lefties, too),
then this change in the technology of monitoring might concern you. If it
becomes simple to gather and sort who does what in electronic spaces, then
the friction-induced privacy of yesterday disappears.
-</p><p>
+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2720355"></a><p>
It is this reality that explains the push of many to define
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">privacy</span>”</span> on the Internet. It is the recognition that
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">privacy</span>»</span> on the Internet. It is the recognition that
technology can remove what friction before gave us that leads many to push
-for laws to do what friction did.<sup>[<a name="id3082321" href="#ftn.id3082321" class="footnote">210</a>]</sup> And
+for laws to do what friction did.<sup>[<a name="id2720378" href="#ftn.id2720378" class="footnote">210</a>]</sup> And
whether you're in favor of those laws or not, it is the pattern that is
important here. We must take affirmative steps to secure a kind of freedom
that was passively provided before. A change in technology now forces those
commercially, the software—both the source code and the
binaries— was free. You couldn't run a program written for a Data
General machine on an IBM machine, so Data General and IBM didn't care much
-about controlling their software. <a class="indexterm" name="id3082362"></a>
-</p><a class="indexterm" name="id3082374"></a><p>

Dette var verden Richard Stallman ble født inn i, og mens han var forsker
ved MIT, lærte han til å elske samfunnet som utviklet seg når en var fri til
å utforske og fikle med programvaren som kjørte på datamaskiner. Av den
free software had been erased by a change in the economics of computing. And
as he believed, if he did nothing about it, then the freedom to change and
share software would be fundamentally weakened.
-</p><p>
-Therefore, in 1984, Stallman began a project to build a free operating
-system, so that at least a strain of free software would survive. That was
-the birth of the GNU project, into which Linus Torvalds's
-<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Linux</span>”</span> kernel was added to produce the GNU/Linux operating
-system. <a class="indexterm" name="id3082441"></a> <a class="indexterm" name="id3082447"></a>
+</p><a class="indexterm" name="id2720490"></a><p>
+Derfor, i 1984, startet Stallmann på et prosjekt for å bygge et fritt
+operativsystem, slik i hvert fall en flik av fri programvare skulle
+overleve. Dette var starten på GNU-prosjektet, som
+<span class="quote">«<span class="quote">Linux</span>»</span>-kjernen til Linus Torvalds senere ble lagt til i for å
+produsere GNU/Linux-operativsystemet. <a class="indexterm" name="id2720512"></a>
+<a class="indexterm" name="id2720519"></a>
</p><p>
Stallman's technique was to use copyright law to build a world of software
that must be kept free. Software licensed under the Free Software
peer review. If accepted, the work is then deposited in a public, electronic
archive and made permanently available for free. PLoS also sells a print
version of its work, but the copyright for the print journal does not
-inhibit the right of anyone to redistribute the work for free. <a class="indexterm" name="id3082570"></a>

This is one of many such efforts to restore a freedom taken for granted
before, but now threatened by changing technology and markets. There's no
their efforts to make money from the exclusive distribution of content. But
competition in our tradition is presumptively a good—especially when
it helps spread knowledge and science.

to better spread their content. Cory Doctorow, for example, is a science

it may still be available in libraries and used book stores. But libraries

Fisher would balk at the idea of allowing the system to lapse. His aim is
not just to ensure that artists are paid, but also to ensure that the system

the aims of semiotic democracy would be satisfied if the other changes I
described were accomplished—in particular, the limits on derivative
uses. A system that simply charges for access would not greatly burden
semiotic democracy if there were few limitations on what one was allowed to
do with the content itself.

countered by Real Networks, offering music at just 79 cents a song. And no

samfunnsfagsundervisning lærte dem at det fungerer.

Men inntil en slik reform er gjennomført, bør vi som samfunn holde lover
unna områder der vi vet den bare vil skade. Og det er nettopp det loven
altfor ofte vil gjøre hvis for mye av vår kultur er lovregulert.
