Tesla libera i suoi brevetti

June 12, 2014 All Our Patent Are Belong To You <http://www.teslamotors.com/blog/all-our-patent-are-belong-you> By Elon Musk, CEO TAGS: Customers <http://www.teslamotors.com/enthusiasts/blogs/tag/customers> / Model S <http://www.teslamotors.com/enthusiasts/blogs/tag/model-s> / 307 comments Yesterday, there was a wall of Tesla patents in the lobby of our Palo Alto headquarters. That is no longer the case. They have been removed, in the spirit of the open source movement, for the advancement of electric vehicle technology. Tesla Motors was created to accelerate the advent of sustainable transport. If we clear a path to the creation of compelling electric vehicles, but then lay intellectual property landmines behind us to inhibit others, we are acting in a manner contrary to that goal. Tesla will not initiate patent lawsuits against anyone who, in good faith, wants to use our technology. [...] Continua qui: http://www.teslamotors.com/blog/all-our-patent-are-belong-you

by Marco Pancini June 12, 2014

June 12, 2014

Cari, Per vostra informazione, la Commissione sta cercando <http://ec.europa.eu/internal_market/iprenforcement/workshops/index_en.htm> esperti in IPR enforcement: 1. Workshops on key economic issues regarding the enforcement of IPR in the EU <http://ec.europa.eu/internal_market/iprenforcement/docs/workshops/140603-ca…> - The European Commission is establishing a list of economists, researchers and experts specialised in the economics of IP. On the basis of this list, the Commission will invite experts in the respective area to thematic workshops to discuss issues which are considered relevant for the economic context of IP. - The objective is to establish closer links with experts and researchers in the field in order to proactively screen developments in the area of IP and their likely economic impacts. 2. Workshop on the concepts of “commercial scale” and “commercial purpose” in the context of IP infringements <http://ec.europa.eu/internal_market/iprenforcement/docs/workshops/140919-wo…> – 19.09.2014 - The Commission intends to hold the first economic workshop on 19 September to discuss the concepts of “commercial scale” and “commercial purpose” in the context of IP infringements. Potential participants will be selected from the list mentioned above by mid-August - The objective of the workshop would be firstly to discuss the pros and cons of the different concepts used in the IPR legal framework of the EU and secondly to discuss potential economic guidance which could be provided to judges in order to help them applying these concepts in order to determine when an infringement or activity should be deemed to be of a 'commercial scale' or for 'commercial purpose' etc. - The Commission staff will produce a summary report of the workshop. The paper will be made public by the Commission on its website. Results might also be used in subsequent policy work and reports by the Commission services.

Call for Papers - DC Net Neutrality Report‏
by Primavera De Filippi June 10, 2014

June 10, 2014

Dear all, this is a kind reminder that the submissions for the annual Report of the Dynamic Coalition on Network Neutrality are due on the 1st July 2014 (see attachment). Please feel free to circulate the call to whoever might be interested! Cheers, Primavera *Dynamic Coalition on Network Neutrality* *Call for Papers* *Network Neutrality:* *Regulatory Tendencies, Peering Agreements* *& Infrastructure Enhancement* *Background:* The network neutrality debate is gaining great political momentum. Several countries have already implemented network neutrality laws, while many others are currently elaborating or scrutinising the opportunity to elaborate network neutrality legislation. Yet, we are witnessing today the emergence of a variety of divergent (and somewhat incompatible) approaches towards whether or not network neutrality is enshrined in law. In the U.S., the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeal invalidated the U.S. FCC Open Internet Order. On the other hand, the Brazilian National Congress has recently adopted the Marco Civil an Internet Bill of Rights containing network neutrality provisions, while at the European level net-neutrality is going to be enshrined into legislation but the outcome of this latter process seem currently difficult to predict. While the network neutrality debate continues, Internet Service Providers (ISPs) may enter into opaque interconnection-arrangements (peering agreements) that might include discriminatory provisions. In the U.S., for instance, Content and Applications Providers (CAPs) have been experimenting new typology of peering agreements that require CAPs to pay ISPs for a direct connection to their consumers (so called “sender-pays” model). The aforementioned issues seem difficult to solve without a serious reflection aimed at allowing the elaboration of evidence-based strategies. The 2014 Report of the Dynamic Coalition on Network Neutrality aims at fostering such a reflection in order to provide a valuable contribution to the crucial debate pertaining to the balance between network-neutrality implementation and infrastructure enhancement. *Call:* The Dynamic Coalition on Network Neutrality, established under the auspices of the United Nations Internet Governance Forum, invites researchers and practitioners to submit a position paper pertaining to the issue of net neutrality and regulatory tendencies. Suggested topics include analyses of, inter alia: · DC Circuit Court of Appeal Decision on the FCC Open Internet Order · European Union’s draft, Connected Continent Regulation, as amended by the European Parliament · Brazilian Marco Civil · Venezuela’s Internet Crackdown · Turkey’s Social-Network Blocking · Peering Agreements · Comcast-Netflix Deal · National/Regional/Local Network Enhancement Policies · Availability and implementation of remedies by regulatory authorities, when access providers have implemented anti-competitive non-neutral policies. *Submission Guidelines:* Research papers, including analytical and theoretical papers, position papers, or case studies will be considered for inclusion in the report, even if they have been previously published. The length of the submissions should be between 2500 and 5000 words. To facilitate the reviewing process, papers should not include author names or other information that would help identify the authors. All paper shall be in English language, and formatted according to the *HWPiL style template*. Submissions are due on *1st July, 2014*. They should include the following elements: · Title · Short abstract (250 words) · Original contribution · Author’s name, afﬁliation and short bibliographical note (in the body of the email). Submissions should be sent to *contact(a)networkneutrality.info* <contact(a)networkneutrality.info> Authors will be notiﬁed within approximately two weeks from the deadline as to the status of their contributions. All submitted papers will be subject to a rigorous double-blind peer review, whereby each paper will be reviewed by at least two reviewers. Everyone who submitted a paper will be asked to peer review another submission, which will be judged according to the novelty of the contribution, the theoretical soundness and the quality of presentation. Authors will be given the opportunity to improve their contributions based on peer comments. Selected papers will be published into the Dynamic Coalition report, which will be published under Open Access conditions. All authors must ensure that their contribution can be licensed under one of the Creative Commons licenses of their choice. Some of the authors will also be invited (at their own expenses) to present their work at the ﬁrst DC meeting to be held at the United Nation Internet Governance Forum, from 2 to 5 September 2014, in Istanbul (Turkey).

Berkman Center Webcast live oggi ore 18.30 - Government as impresario: Emergent public goods and public private partnerships 2.0
by Giuseppe Futia June 10, 2014

June 10, 2014

Government as impresario: Emergent public goods and public private partnerships 2.0 http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/events/luncheon/2014/01/gruen * Nicholas Gruen, policy economist, entrepreneur and commentator* Today, 6.30 pm Webcast live: http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/interactive/webcast http://nexa.polito.it/berkman-webcast-live Though we're used to thinking that public goods must be produced by governments, there's a fundamental and growing class of public goods that emerge from private interaction. A market itself is such an emergent public good, celebrated as 'order without design' by Adam Smith. So too is language. Today emergent public goods, like Twitter, Facebook and Wikipedia, burgeon on the internet ushering in a new age. But there must exist a panoply of public goods which could be brought into existence by the right kind of partnership between private and public endeavor. This talk will explore that terrain providing compelling examples whilst expounding the principles on which such partnerships should be based. About Nicholas Nicholas Gruen is a widely published policy economist, entrepreneur and commentator who has been a regular columnist in the Courier Mail, the Australian Financial Review, the Age and the Sydney Morning Herald. He has advised Cabinet Ministers, sat on Australia's Productivity Commission and founded Lateral Economics and Peach Financial. He chairs the Australian Federal Government's Innovation Australia Board, the Australian Centre for Social Innovation and the Partnership for Digital Services for Ecologically Sustainable Development and is Patron of the Australian Digital Alliance, which brings together Australia's libraries, universities, and major providers of digital infrastructure such as Google and Yahoo. He is a member of the Council of the National Library of Australia. He was second shareholder and Chairman of successful San Francisco based startup data analytics crowdsourcing platform Kaggle.com. He is an Angel investor in a number of other Australian startups including biNu.com a cloud based application delivering 'smart phone' capabilities to the feature phones of the developing world, OneTouch which is developing semantic document management systems, and of Roomz.com which aims to be the AirBnB for share houses as well as some silicon valley based startups. He was a member of a major review into Australia's Innovation System in 2008, a review of Pharmaceutical patent extensions in 2013. In 2009 he chaired Australia's internationally acclaimed Government 2.0 Taskforce. He has a BA (Hons) First Class in History (1981) and a PhD in Public Policy from the ANU (1998), and an LLB (Hons) from the University of Melbourne (1982).
