The Committee met, pursuant to call, at 10:06 a.m., in room 2141, Rayburn Office Building, the Honorable Lamar Smith (Chair- man of the Committee) presiding. Present: Representatives Smith, Coble, Goodlatte, Lungren, Chabot, Issa, Forbes, King, Franks, Gohmert, Jordan, Poe, Chaffetz, Griffin, Marino, Gowdy, Ross, Adams, Quayle, Amodei, Conyers, Berman, Nadler, Watt, Lofgren, Jackson Lee, Waters, Cohen, Johnson, Quigley, Chu, Deutch, and Sa´nchez. Staff present: (Majority) David Whitney, Counsel; Olivia Lee, Clerk; and (Minority) Jason Everett, Counsel. Mr. SMITH. Good morning. The Judiciary Committee will come to order. Without objection, the Chair is authorized to declare recesses of the Committee at any time. I am going to recognize myself for an opening statement, then the Ranking Member, and then the Chairman and the Ranking Member of the appropriate Subcommittee. Today’s hearing is on legislation that will help protect one of the most productive sectors of the American economy. While the Digital Millennium Copyright Act does provide some relief to copyright owners whose works are infringed, it only helps in limited cir- cumstances. The DMCA provides no effective relief when a rogue website is foreign-based and foreign operated, like The Pirate Bay, the 89th most visited site in the U.S. It does not protect trademark owners and consumers from counterfeit and unsafe products, like fake prescription medicines and misbranded branded drugs that are often presented to the public by unlicensed online pharmacies. Nor does the law assist copyright owners when rogue websites con- tribute to the theft of intellectual property on a massive scale. And, finally, this does nothing to address the use of certain inter- mediaries, such as payment processors and Internet advertising services, that are used by criminals to fund the illegal activities. Mr. SCOTT. Mr. Chairman, I am having trouble hearing your statement. Mr. SMITH. I would not want anyone to miss my statement, so I will make sure that the sound system is working and that I am close enough to the mic. Mr. SCOTT. Turn his mic way up. (1) 2 Mr. SMITH. That is where the Stop Online Piracy Act comes in. This bill focuses not on technology, but on preventing those who engage in criminal behavior from reaching directly into the U.S. market to harm American consumers. We cannot continue a system that allows criminals to disregard our laws and import

  • (US Innovation) Online Piracy Act of 2011
    Insight Stop (U.S. Innovation) Online Piracy Act of 2011: OCTOBER 27, 2011 Yesterday the text for the Stop Online Piracy Act of 2011 was released, instantly causing an enormous, justified, uproar from online communities globally. If passed, this bill threatens to suffocate US innovation in technology, jeopardize the free flow of information online, and create further capital uncertainty for the our most innovative domestic companies. Bill Overview The bill is headed for the House of Representatives now to be heard by the House Judiciary Committee on November 16th. The authors, Representatives Lamar Smith (R-TX), John Conyers (D-MI), Bob Goodlatte (R- VA), and Howard Berman (D-CA) intended for the Stop Online Piracy Act to increase the government’s ability to disable websites deemed “foreign infringing sites.” A foreign infringing site is any “US Directed Site” that actively breaks the terms of a US law, agreement, or copyright. While this bill targets foreign sites, it applies to all sites that are “US Directed,” in other words, any site that provides content accessable by a US consumer. Net Neutrality: Enabling a Free Exchange of Information Net neutrality, in the simplest form, prohibits Internet Service Providers (ISPs) from restricting consumer’s access to information on the Internet based on content. This means that ISPs cannot block information, leaving consumers free to make informed decisions about their own online usage. While net neutrality only covers lawful content, the threat posed by the Stop Online Piracy Act is contained in a clause that allows immunity for any ISPs, search engines, domain registries, or similar gatekeepers with reasonable belief that the content is a foreign infringing site Enabling “Reasonable Doubt” as a Competitive Tool The online space is ripe for innovation because information is easily accessable and the barriers to entry are low.

This theory that justifies and supports the foundation for the era of Postmodernism is totally false.” George Sakkal, 2011 Artist, educator, writer and research analyst George Sakkal will provide evidence adapted and applied from the fields of cognitive psychology and neuroscience discoveries, made since 1980, to prove conclusively that Marcel Duchamp’s Postmodern conceptual – anti-retinal theory of art is bogus. You are encouraged to attend Sakkal’s revolutionary, thought provoking presentation, “The Problem with Postmodern Art Theory: The Visual versus the Conceptual”. This lecture will be held on Saturday, March 26, 2011, at 2:00 p.m. on Stage # 1. This lecture will reveal the myth of Duchamp’s theory and advance in its place the Human Creative Response, and initi- ate the art movement, CUVISM, Cognitive Unconscious Visual- ism.

  • Protect IP Act Summary
    Summary: The PROTECT IP Act of 2011 This Summary describes the problem of rogue websites. It also explains how the PROTECT IP Act fights back against the criminals who operate and profit from those sites. As often happens during the legislative process, the Act may undergo various versions as it moves towards eventual passage. This Summary highlights the most important components of the Act, but please note that the details described below may change prior to passage. What are Rogue Websites? So-called “rogue websites” are foreign illegal websites that make money by distributing infringing copyrighted content or selling counterfeit goods. These offshore commercial websites receive more than 53-billion hits each year, and operate overseas with impunity because they cannot be reached by U.S. law enforcement. Rogue websites don’t pay U.S. taxes, contribute to the U.S. economy, promote U.S. jobs, manufacture creative content, or promote any social values. However, they are currently financed by U.S. consumers, U.S. advertisers, U.S. credit card companies, U.S. search engines, and domain name system server operators. Illegal offshore websites threaten both U.S. businesses and consumers. They are disguised to appear legitimate, and a consumer may be unaware they are visiting an illegal website or purchasing stolen or counterfeited goods. The foreign criminals who operate rogue websites can steal identities, sell personal information, install malicious software, or provide substandard or dangerous counterfeit goods (such as defective medical devices, pharmaceuticals, military goods, and other hard goods). They operate without fear of U.S. law enforcement, even while they present a clear and present danger to U.S.

    November 15, 2011 Hon. Patrick Leahy, Chairman Hon. Lamar Smith, Chairman Hon. Chuck Grassley, Ranking Hon. John Conyers Jr., Ranking Member Member Senate Judiciary Committee House Judiciary Committee 224 Dirksen Senate Office Building 2138 Rayburn House Office Building US Capitol US Capitol Washington, DC 20002 Washington, DC 20003 Dear Committee Chairmen, On behalf of the undersigned student and youth organizations, we are writing today to express our serious concerns about legislation being considered by the House and Senate in the name of fighting Internet piracy. We oppose, in their current forms, legislation approved by the Senate Judiciary Committee ( S. 968, the Protect IP Act) and legislation introduced by members of the House Judiciary Committee (HR 3261, the Stop Online Piracy Act-SOPA) that, while pursuing the laudable goal of fighting Internet piracy, will curtail the legitimate free flow of information, hurt efforts to promote human rights, create undue censorship of legitimate websites and interfere with the growth of the Internet economy so important to our futures as young people. The Senate bill, while narrowed from earlier versions, contains many objectionable provisions including the DNS Internet blocking system that attacks the very foundation of the Internet address system and according to some will undermine security and the provision that specifically targets "Information Location Tools / Search Engines” that has the potential of crippling the gate ways to the Internet and its wealth of information by forcing the platforms we use to search for information to become censors rather than compasses. The House bill goes even further than its Senate counterpart by including an overly broad definition of an infringing website subject to immediate blocking.

    The Application of Social Networks to the Marketing of Industrial Products ________________________ A Master’s Thesis Presented to School of Information Design Technology State University of New York Institute of Technology Utica, New York _____________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Master of Science Degree ________________________ by Roger Perlstein December 2010 Roger C. Perlstein 2010 SUNYIT DEPARTMENT OF INFORMATION DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY Approved and recommended for acceptance as a thesis in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Information Design and Technology _____________________________________ DATE ____________________________________________________ Stephen Schneider Thesis Advisor ____________________________________________________ Russell Kahn ____________________________________________________ Kathryn Stam ii Abstract Social networking changes the way people share ideas and communicate. Advantages in portability, reach, and access contribute to acceptance of social networks and the likelihood that they will continue to grow. While these systems were initially used by individuals, they were not as widely employed by businesses. Some firms however are leveraging these tools and integrating social networking into their marketing. Where social networks are used by businesses, they are primarily focused on consumer goods, home and family, electronics and entertainment. Business-to-business applications are not as widely used and some question whether such tools offer significant benefits in such settings. This thesis studies social network marketing for a vehicle lift manufacturer. It addresses viability, strategy and practices for a vehicle maintenance equipment manufacturer. It analyzes data collected from other similar companies to identify best practices for the use of such tools and details the current state of the industry for this market. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE LIST OF TABLES s, , vi LIST OF FIGURES vi Chapter 1.

    This statement was drafted in connection with a proposed hearing before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee that would haave examined legislative proposals to block access to websites containing coopyright inffringing materials. The testimony was submitted to the Committee, but thhe hearing was postponed before the testimony could be entered in the record. Testimony of Michael W. Macleod-Ball Chief of Staff/First Amendment Counsel American Civil Liberties Union Washington Legislativve Office On "Government Mandated DNS Blocking and Search Takedowns - Will It End the Internet as We Know It? Before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform January 18, 2012 1 Chairman Issa, Ranking Member Cummings, and Members of the Committee: Thank you for holding this hearing and extending to the American Civil Liberties Union the privilege of offering testimony. We oppose current proposals to take down infringing online content through Domain Name Service (DNS) and/or search engine blocking because such mechanisms assuredly will also block lawful non-infringing content. Moreover, current proposals fall short procedurally by failing to provide notice of the takedown to the owners or producers of such lawful content and by failing to provide those parties any opportunity to participate in the proceedings relevant to the restriction. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is a non-partisan advocacy organization having more than a half million members, countless additional activists and supporters, and 53 affiliates nationwide. We are dedicated to the principles of individual rights, equality, and justice as set forth in the U. S. Constitution. For more than 90 years since its founding, the ACLU has been America’s leading defender of First Amendment free speech principles.
