Abstract:
Copyright represents a constant and delicately poised balance among three, often competing interests: the author's and his/her rights in a protected work; the enterpreneur's who exploit such works and his/her own rights; and finally, the public who needs to have access to these works. However, especially since the mid-twentieth century, the system of copyright, and even its existence itself, has been seriously challenged. These challenges have come from the attitude of the 'developing countries', the advent of new technologies, and the consequent changing nature of piracy and private copying.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the on-going anti-piracy and anti-file sharing measures taken by media conglomerates and big content as misguided attempts at addressing changing consumer expectations and social and technological norms. These measures include legislation such as the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), Preventing Real Online Threats to Economic Creativity and Theft of Intellectual Property Act (PIPA), Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA), and Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (CISPA); and litigation against both extremes of the spectrum: from the world's largest file sharing s

Abstract:
With the arrival of the digital age, faster internet speeds, and greater storage capacities in our computers, digital piracy is on the rise. Neither the illegality of piracy nor the unethical nature of doing so has stopped people from partaking in the act. Studies show that tens of billions of dollars of pirated goods are downloaded every year, yet our policies fail to solve the issue of digital copyright infringement. The biggest issues contributing to the problem are the lack of a policy that consumers take seriously in combination with some digital goods being too expensive in their current
