CHANDER GALLEYSPROOFS2 2/17/2014 9:02 AM HOW LAW MADE SILICON VALLEY Anupam Chander* ABSTRACT Explanations for the success of Silicon Valley focus on the confluence of capital and education. In this Article, I put forward a new explanation, one that better elucidates the rise of Silicon Valley as a global trader. Just as nineteenth-century American judges altered the common law in order to subsidize industrial development, American judges and legislators altered the law at the turn of the Millennium to promote the development of Internet enterprise. Europe and Asia, by contrast, imposed strict intermediary liability regimes, inflexible intellectual property rules, and strong privacy constraints, impeding local Internet entrepreneurs. This study challenges the conventional wisdom that holds that strong intellectual property rights undergird innovation. While American law favored both commerce and speech enabled by this new medium, European and Asian jurisdictions attended more to the risks to intellectual property rights holders and, to a lesser extent, ordinary individuals.

FREE SPEECH SAVIOR OR SHIELD FOR SCOUNDRELS: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF INTERMEDIARY IMMUNITY UNDER SECTION 230 OF THE COMMUNICATIONS DECENCY ACT David S. Ardia * In the thirteen years since its enactment, section 230 of the Communications Decency Act has become one of the most important statutes impacting online speech, as well as one of the most intensely criticized. In deceptively simple language, its provisions sweep away the common law's distinction between publisher and distributor liability, granting operators of Web sites and other interactive computer services broad protectionfrom claims based on the speech of third parties. Section 230 is of critical importance because virtually all speech that occurs on the Internet is facilitated by private intermediaries that have a fragile commitment to the speech they facilitate.

  • L Edward J. Malecki
    The Internet: Where Does Florida Stand?l Edward J. Malecki Technology is now among the factors that make a place com­ petitive. State-of-the-art economic development no longer focuses on "ch'lsing" high technology companies, but has given way to building knowledge, networks, and collaboration. Newer, "fourth wave" of policies that have emerged since the mid-1990s now comprise a mix of public-sector policies to integrate local econo­ mies into global markets, develop local human capital resources, and increase use of tL'lecommunications as a development tool (Clarke and Caile 1998). The argumcnt that a "new economy" has developed is compel­ ling. The Internet has changed how people, firms, and govern­ nll'nts go about their daily routines. Yet the existence of a "digital divide" between havcs and have-nots is also disturbing. In a series of reports, the US Department of Commerce has documented that the poor and thosl' in rural areas are far more likely to be uncon­ nected to the new economy (NTIA 2000a).2 A "new geography" also is eml'rging, with some places taking better advantage of the new economic and technological situation than others (Kotkin 2(00). The paper investigates briefly where Florida stands in the Internet economy, primarily using data for 2000. This is followed bv a look at some statewide indicators. A third section examines in detail the conncctions to Florida metropolitan areas on the Intcrnet's "backbone" networks. A fourth discusses interconnec­ tion and the two South Florida Internet Exchange (IX) points. The last section looks at several other rankings of Florida's metro areas related to the Internet.

Defendants moved to compel arbitration and to stay court proceedings, arguing that plaintiffs’ claims were subject to an arbitration provision contained in license terms that plaintiffs allegedly had accepted when they downloaded the plug-in program.
