Lawrence Lessig rightly excoriates Helprin's new book on copyright. "Mark Helprin has demonstrated no understanding in this book. And between a copyright system that fails to give royalties to grandchildren, and a culture of publishing that spreads the sort of ignorant raving that this book is, I should think we should be more concerned about the latter rather than the former."

"In this enlightening book James Boyle describes what he calls the range wars of the information age—today’s heated battles over intellectual property. Boyle argues that just as every informed citizen needs to know at least something about the environment or civil rights, every citizen should also understand intellectual property law. Why? Because intellectual property rights mark out the ground rules of the information society, and today’s policies are unbalanced, unsupported by evidence, and often detrimental to cultural access, free speech, digital creativity, and scientific innovation."

This is so completely the wrong way to go about this... I've never been as shaken by a clueless Google move as I am by this. Completely and absolutely counter-productive.

The Internet is different from publishing, in fact if not in theory. Were one publisher as dominant as Google or YouTube, its corporate judgments might have a very big impact on the free flow of ideas. And the DMCA protocol presents opportunities for the powerful to suppress speech by spurious invocation of copyright law. In the United States, the Internet is still the "most participatory form of mass speech yet developed," as a federal judge, Stewart R. Dalzell, wrote in overturning an early Internet-censorship law. For the Internet to remain so, more legislation will be needed to guarantee its openness.

Good news. The notion of Lessig as the Copyright Czar, while it would never happen, is even better.

Have to agree with Link-- Lessig spanks Keen and, to my total unsurprise, seems to reveal Keen as a shallow polemicist rather than a sly self-parodist

Lessig is quite charitable in attributing ASCAP's ninnery to "misunderstanding" rather than the elaborate FUD that it actually is. But he still kills it.
