Adam R. Bialek (Partner-New York, NY) and Sarah Fink (Associate-Garden City, NY) will present on “Copyright Infringement and Social Media” during the December 11, 2020, monthly call of the California Lawyers Association’s Licensing & Technology Transactions Interest Group (Google Groups). With social media becoming a prominent method to disseminate information, traditional principles of law have been stretched. This webinar will address the divergent views of long-established precedent in the Ninth Circuit in Perfect 10 and recent decisions in district courts within the Second Circuit when evaluating copyright infringement claims for the use of other’s content through embedding and in-line linking. Adam and Sarah also will address the positions of various social media platforms that require users to agree to terms and conditions that protect the platforms but offer no clear protection to the users.
