ACCESS TO GOVERNMENT INFORMATION: USING FOIA AND STATE FOI LAWS IN SUPPORT OF LAW AND POLICY ADVOCACY | April 17, 2017 | 12:00p – 1:00 |Milstein East C, Wasserstein Hall, Harvard Law School | The federal Freedom of Information Act and its state law analogs can be powerful tools for law and policy advocates in a wide range of fields. Understanding how to navigate freedom of information laws can be key to understanding facts and decision-making processes in virtually any substantive arena of government action — from environmental to education to energy, housing to health care to human rights, commerce to copyright to civil liberties. Developing expertise with the practical aspects of pursuing successful freedom of information requests can ensure advocates use these tools effectively and efficiently. This panel discussion will offer an introduction to freedom of information law and practice. Panelists Michael Morisy (cofounder of MuckRock, a non-profit, collaborative news site that provides a repository for government materials and information on how to file FOIA requests), Toby Merrill (Clinical Instructor in the Predatory Lending Practice and Director of the Project on Predatory Student Lending at HLS), and Amanda Savage (Attorney and Fellow, Project on Predatory Student Lending at HLS) will address their experiences using freedom of information laws effectively and offer a roadmap for those seeking to employ freedom of information requests in support of their work. Mason Kortz, a clinical instructional fellow at the Harvard Law School Cyberlaw Clinic, will moderate the event. The event is sponsored by the Harvard Women’s Law Association, the Cyberlaw Clinic, and the Harvard Law School Office of Clinical and Pro Bono Programs. Lunch will be served — please rsvp.
Rise of the API Copyright Dead?
RISE OF THE API COPYRIGHT DEAD? AN UPDATED EPITAPH FOR COPYRIGHT PROTECTION OF NETWORK FEATURES OF COMPUTER SOFTWARE (FEATURING PETER MENELL) | WCC 1015, Harvard Law School, Cambridge, MA | 12:00 pm, March 30, 2017 | In 2010, Oracle filed a lawsuit against Google alleging that Google infringed Oracle’s copyrights in application program interface (“API”) packages relating to the Java interface. The case resulted in decisions from the United States District Court for the Northern District of California and the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit that will have far-reaching implications with respect to interoperability and the scope of intellectual property protection for the functional elements of computer code. Peter Menell is Koret Professor of Law and Director, Berkeley Center for Law & Technology, at the University of California at Berkeley School of Law (Boalt Hall). In two recent works, Professor Menell addressed the protections afforded by copyright law to network and functional features of software. In this presentation, Professor Menell will address longstanding questions about the United States Copyright Act and the way its provisions apply to code. He will trace the history of software copyright and shed light on what the Oracle v. Google case means for the future of APIs. The Cyberlaw Clinic is pleased to co-present this event along with the Harvard Journal of Law and Technology.

GOOGLE | Harvard Law School, Cambridge, MA | Septmeber 24, 2015 | The Federal Circuit’s May 2014 decision holding Java application programming interfaces are copyrightable has potentially far-reaching implications with respect to interoperability and computer-to-computer communications via APIs.

SXSW MUSIC 2015: RIGHTS MANAGEMENT AND COLLECTIVE LICENSING ORGANIZATIONS | Austin Convention Center, Room 10A | March 19, 2015, 5:00 pm – 6:00 pm | As more creators and independent entities control music rights, and as more digital services need rights to distribute music, one might expect intermediaries to play a major role in the licensing of compositions and recordings. But technology has enabled rights owners and licensees to bring in-house expertise required to manage licensing and payment of royalties. With publishers threatening to pull repertoire from PROs, and services like SiriusXM threatening to circumvent SoundExchange, the future of these kinds of organizations is unclear. Clinic Managing Director Chris Bavitz will moderate a panel featuring Allen Bargfrede of Berklee College of Music and Rethink Music, Åsa Carild of STIM, and Christine Pepe of ASCAP, seeking to analyze the state of rights management and collective licensing organizations and their role in the licensing landscape.

INNOVATING IN THE OPEN | Harvard Law School, Wasserstein Hall, Room WCC 1010 | January 29, 2015, 3:30pm – 4:30 pm | Efforts to innovate and promote innovation often proceed in black boxes, out of concern for intellectual property protection and first-mover advantage.An alternative model, however, prioritizes engagement with users, consumers, competitors, and the general public throughout the creative process. Devotees of this more open approach to innovation view the risks of early disclosure as outweighed by the benefits of drawing on the wisdom of the crowd. The Cyberlaw Clinic and the Berkman Center for Internet & Society — along with the Harvard Innovation Lab, the HLS Food Law and Policy Clinic, and the Harvard Business School Digital Initiative — are pleased to present this panel discussion. The event will feature Matt Tucker from the HBS Digital Initiative (talking about the Open Forum platform), Hila Lifshitz-Assaf from NYU’s Stern School of Business, Jeff Warren from Public Lab, and Emily Broad Leib from the HLS Food Law and Policy Clinic, in a discussion moderated by the Cyberlaw Clinic’s Chris Bavitz. Panelists will address the topic of open innovation and how it can be used to improve development of everything from consumer products and services to software code to policy proposals.

Join Assistant Attorney General for National Security, HLS alumnus and Heyman Fellow John Carlin, together with moderator Jonathan Zittrain, for a conversation about significant national security cyber issues and the tools available in the United States to address them.

KURT OPSAHL ON NATIONAL SECURITY LETTERS | Harvard Law School, WCC 3019 | September 19, 2014 | Several federal statutes authorize the Federal Bureau of Investigation to issue National Security Letters — administrative subpoenas that require companies to disclose customer information relevant to national security investigations. In March 2013, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California held that gag order provisions in the NSL statute violated the First Amendment and that judicial review procedures violate separation of powers, declaring the entire statute unconstitutional. The court stayed its order pending the government’s appeal. The unnamed ISPs challenging the statute are represented by the Electronic Frontier Foundation. In the wake of recent leaks on national security activities vis a vis major online service providers, non-disclosure provisions in NSLs have come to the forefront of the national conversation on transparency for service providers and due process for their customers. Join us on Friday, September 19, 2014 from 12:00 pm until 1:00 pm in WCC 3019 for a conversation with Kurt Opsahl, a Berkman Center Affiliate and EFF attorney who is arguing the NSL appeal.
