    Facebook, Inc. v. Power Ventures, Inc. 1 Facebook, Inc. v. Power Ventures, Inc. Facebook, Inc. v. Power Ventures, Inc. United States District Court for the Northern District of California Date decided May 11, 2009 Citations 91 U.S.P.Q.2d 1430 Judge sitting Jeremy D. Fogel Case holding Case Pending; Defendant's Motion to Dismiss Denied; Defendant's Motion for a more definite statement Granted in Part, Denied in Part. Keywords Copyright, DMCA, Lanham Act, Trademark, Unfair Competition Facebook, Inc. v. Power Ventures, Inc. is a lawsuit brought by Facebook in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California alleging that Power.com [1], a third-party platform, collected user information from Facebook and displayed it on their own website. Facebook claimed violations of the CAN-SPAM Act, the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act ("CFAA"), and the California Comprehensive Computer Data Access and Fraud Act.[2] According to Facebook, Power.com made copies of Facebook’s website during the process of extracting user information. Facebook argued that this process causes both direct and indirect copyright infringement. In addition, Facebook alleged this process constitutes a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"). Finally, Facebook also asserted claims of both state and federal trademark infringement, as well as a claim under California's Unfair Competition Law ("UCL"). Power.com filed a motion to dismiss the case (or in the alternative, a motion for a more definite statement), but Judge Fogel denied the motion. In a counter-claim, Power.com alleged that Facebook engaged in monopolistic and anti-competitive behavior by placing restraints on Power.com's ability to manipulate users' Facebook data even when their consent was given.[3] Background Power Ventures operates Power.com, a website that enables its users to aggregate data about themselves that is otherwise spread across various social networking sites and messaging services, including LinkedIn, twitter, Myspace, and AOL or Yahoo instant messaging.

  • 1 US COURT of APPEALS for the NINTH CIRCUIT Judicial Profile
    U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT Judicial Profile: Carlos Bea COURT: Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals APPOINTED: 2003, by President George W. Bush BORN: April 18, 1934 LAW SCHOOL: Stanford Law School PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE: San Francisco Superior Court Bench, 1990-2003 After long wait, Bea ascends federal bench Jason Hoppin The Recorder November 18, 2003 Carlos Bea can breathe a little bit easier now. Not only are his chambers in the Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals much larger than his old haunt at the San Francisco Superior Court, but he no longer has to wonder what kind of federal judge he'd have made. He's about to find out. The longtime litigator and dedicated Republican had been on the superior court a little more than a year when the first President Bush tapped him for the Northern District federal bench. His nomination died without a hearing, however, and Bea waited a decade before being offered his current post. The former Olympian is still fit at 69 years old. The white hair, dark complexion and crisp shirts project the dignity of an ambassador. Bea seems to fit right in at the beaux-arts Ninth Circuit headquarters on Seventh and Mission streets. His enormous office is decorated with paintings from his personal collection -- portraits and scenes painted in a classical style. Weathered antiques have been imported in a feeble attempt to fill the cavernous space. On the superior court, Bea required decorum in the courtroom. Some lawyers say he can come across as imperious.
