From: "Sanfilippo, Tony" <[log in to unmask]> Date: Thu, 8 Feb 2018 12:10:32 +0000 How do you know that’s what the macaque wants? I for one would very much like to see what happens when we give a macaque a revenue stream. Also, it’s easy to dismiss the animal rights angle here, but the point about agency and its use to end private ownership of primates and cetaceans is an important one.

Another reason to support the return of formal copyright registration?

Recorded Jan. 30, 2018 at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society "After a photographer left his camera equipment out for a group of wild macaques to explore, the monkeys took a series of photos, including selfies. Once the photos were posted publicly, legal disputes arose around who should own the copyrights — the human photographer who engineered the situation, or the macaques who snapped the photos. This unique case raises the increasingly pertinent question as to whether non-humans — whether they be monkeys or artificial intelligence machines — can claim copyrights to their creations. Jon Lovvorn, Lecturer on Law and the Policy Director of Harvard Law School's Animal Law & Policy Program, hosts a discussion panel featuring Jeff Kerr, the General Counsel of PETA, which sued on behalf of the monkey, and experts on copyright, cyber law, and intermediary liability issues, as well as Tiffany C. Li of Yale Law School’s Information Society Project, and Christopher T. Bavitz and Kendra Albert of Harvard Law School’s Cyberlaw Clinic."
