International IP Law: Crash Course Intellectual Property #6

This week, Stan Muller teaches you how intellectual property law functions internationally. Like, between countries. Well, guess what. There's kind of no such thing as international law. But we can talk about treaties. There are a bevy of international treaties that regulate how countries deal with each others' IP. The upside is that this cooperation tends to foster international trade. The downside is, these treaties tend to stifle creativity by making it harder to shorten copyright terms.

The question is how to give the owner a fair price for the use of their property. The problem is poor countries are just that poor. If any item you want to buy has a fair market price above your means, there is no way to gain access to it. The only exception is if those with the information are willing to accept a loss. Regardless of your moral persuasion, it is hard to let go of something you know has value. It is good to note that the more wide spread the information, the less it is worth. So, to give it to them is to lose at the sale and future sales of that property. I gave you this information for free, and that is what it is worth. Was I nice, or should I have made it a property and sold it to you?

I appreciate this series, but honestly you dumped too much information too fast. It is hard to keep track of everything you said when you jump from one topic to the next in a single breath. I think you could've made more videos or made the current videos longer. The way it is doesn't work properly because there is a LOT of name-dropping and lists of characteristics and conditions that you barely have time to understand before a new concept is introduced.

-CrashCourse Consider a band X writes a song Y. Obviously Y is a copyright of band X and band X is their trademark. What happens when this band no longer uses their name for decades that their trademark expires. How does this affect their copyright on song Y? And can another band adopt the name band X while singing the song Y on a public stage for profits?

I still have questions. Does the Domain of a web site decide what country or laws applies? What If an island nation Fakeistan had set up a video sharing site stealing IP in the Terabytes and distributing. Since the nation hasn't signed up to any conventions, treaties or rules can anyone prosecute that nation and/or its residents?

I really like this, but I would have thought that in this epside you at least mention that we in the EU do have an multinational system. We have -community trademarks- that basically work as if the EU was just one country, and it can also be linked to a national trade mark. Isn't that international enough?

Is China(PROC) party to these agreements? I've long understood that for businesses to operate in China they have to partner with the government thus turning over business trade secrets, not to mention the insane number of knock-off everything that come from China.

Dollar-Yen trading agreements? Copyrights on printed money? What about a speCk on money? And fame. who breaks the
circle of power, should pay and does, unfortunately. And when the Trade Federation speaks up on Star Wars.

It is sad, that it didn't stay on 20 years with movies, as it did with patents. They made some good ones 50 years ago, which people are only able to see thanks to torrents and pirate bay.

Dude, you don't explain the key issue. If your author's rights are violated abroad, what do you do? Go to the court of that country or you can settle it from your place?

I got to visit WIPO on a study abroad trip! Of course the thing I remember most was their delicious cafeteria food, rather than the discussion of trade agreements.
