Question

IP lawyer and scholar James Boyle and Lawrence Lessig, author of the next reading, are among those who believe we should be reducing private control of culture and preserving more for our common, public use. Material that is always freely usable by anyone, without permission, is said to be "in the public domain." Free-floating "ideas"-as opposed to expressions that have been "fixed"-and government writings, such as judicial opinions, are available to anyone. And when copyrights expire, protected works are said to return to the public domain. In the reading that follows, Lessig elaborates on his concerns that, left unchallenged, modern technology and changes in IP law will diminish what should be a vibrant cultural commons.
