Abstract

News release: "

In late January, William F. Patry, senior copyright counsel for Google, Inc., delivered the inaugural Distinguished Speaker Series sponsored by the Golden Gate University Intellectual Property Law Center. In an impassioned and entertaining talk titled “When is Too Much Enough? The Humpty Dumpty State of Copyright,” Patry argued that the expansion of copyright in recent years unduly rewards copyright owners—“granting them astonishingly broad rights they really don’t deserve”—while suppressing new business models and technologies."
