  • Intellectual Property Channeling for Digital Works
    INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CHANNELING FOR DIGITAL WORKS Lucas S. Osborn† Market economies are based on free competition, which can include copying. Yet intellectual property protection in the United States prohibits copying in certain circumstances to incentivize innovation and creativity. New breeds of digital works are challenging our historical application of intellectual property law. These include certain categories of software programs as well as digital manufacturing files. These new works look deceptively like works from a previous era and thus, courts might languorously treat them as they have older works. This would be a mistake. This Article analyzes these works in terms of existing intellectual property doctrine and constructs a normative framework for channeling the works among the different intellectual property regimes and, in some cases, away from intellectual property protection altogether.

  • High Risk/No Reward Jul
    Dane Capital Management, LLC, Dane Capital Management LLC Value, special situations, long/short equity, hedge fund manager CDRB: 90%+ Downside - High Risk/No Reward Jul. 30, 2015 6:40 PM ET Disclosure: I am/we are short CDRB. (More...) Summary • Code Rebel is likely worth no more than its current cash balance plus a modest amount for its acquisition of ThinOps Resources. In sum, no more than $1 per share. • Code Rebel has 2 employees, $36,000 in revenue in 1Q, down y/y and sequentially, has no patents or patents pending, and competes against Amazon, Citrix, Google, LogMeIn, Microsoft, and others. • While the value of operations is likely negligible, we believe recent public statements by management could result in regulatory scrutiny. • It appears that the company may have omitted material information from it's recent IPO prospectus and provided misleading information regarding business trends. • Public statements by the CEO and Board Member Dr. James Canton at a minimum appear to embellish facts. Dr. Canton's $14.2 million restricted stock grant could be motivating his enthusiasm. Code Rebel (NASDAQ:CDRB) is one of the most over-valued stocks we have ever seen. The company boasts a market-cap approaching $200 million, despite having just $36,700 (no zeros missing) in 1Q revenues, which was down sequentially and year-over-year. The company has only 2 full-time employees. The CEO Arben Kryeziu, is only part time, as he is also CTO of publicly-traded FlikMedia (OTCPK:FLKM) - which has deficient internal controls and going- concern risk according to its filings.
