After watching two videos answer the following questions, thank you.
1. Watch Laws that Choke Creativity TED Talk by Lawrence Lessig:
https://www.ted.com/talks/larry_lessig_says_the_law_is_strangling_creativity/transcript?language=en
(1) How does Mr. Lessig see IP and copyright protection in terms of human rights?
(2) Analyzing his arguments, are you for or against this thinking? Back up your answer with some researched data from a research journal, legal case study or court opinion paper.
2. Then Watch Lessons from fashion's free culture TED Talk by Johanna Blakley:
http://www.ted.com/talks/johanna_blakley_lessons_from_fashion_s_free_culture?utm_source=tedcomshare&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=tedspread
(1) What was surprising to you regarding IP and copyright laws specifically from this talk? How does this talk support or refute your arguments in the previous post?
(2) How is the technology industry the same or different than the industries that Ms. Blakley discusses?
(3) Using Ms. Blakley's diagram of Ideas/Digital Manifestation to Physical Fixed Express vs. Utility to Art , where, predominantly does the organization you have been researching in this class operate?
