Re: Copyright violation

I understand that you think your clickdata belongs to you, but it's not a copyright and neither you nor anyone else will be able to use that argument. Clickdata is a privacy issue, not one for the copyright office. |

No one seems to care about privacy online these days, but every time you turn around some huge group is crying about their copyrights being violated, so I figured maybe I'd join them.

Beautiful fantasy you've got going on there, but no court in the country is going to assign you a copyright for clickstream data because it is not considered a fixed medium.
You'd have to go pretty far up in the food chain to get a judge to render a decision that makes it so, and, somehow, I don't ever see that happening.

The thing that's rather annoying is that the ISP seems to think they own the data, so someone CAN claim ownership. Just a question of what stands up.
I still say the more annoying part is that they could be or are modifying web site code on its way back to the requestor and it is that part I think is highly objectionable. |
