Today’s copyright law issues have expanded well beyond its classical roots in literary works, spanning from electronic books to blogs and social media sites and video games and mobile applications to the reproduction and re-use of online materials to the misappropriation of data. The march of technology has drastically increased the ease and speed of copying and distributing protected materials, while at the same time enlarging the scope of what is protectable in the first place—which now includes computer software, databases and the design of semiconductor chips.
