One of the biggest winners of the current pandemic seems to be the former Silicon Valley startup Zoom. The company’s success can be attributed to a number of factors – arguably including its software’s highly popular virtual-background feature. The virtual-background feature includes, inter alia, iconic stills from movie sets. This give rise to whether use of these virtual-backgrounds may constitute an infringement of copyright.

SpicyIP is proud to announce the first edition of the Shamnad Basheer Essay Competition on Intellectual Property Law. For its first edition, the competition will be open to students currently enrolled in any LLB program (or its equivalent – meaning students enrolled in J.D. programs can take part) across the world.

No comments:

All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
