On today’s episode we focus on what the final text of Article 17 requires in terms of its two-fold licensing and filtering mandate. The text has a series of broad progressive safeguards and exceptions, leaving a lot of room for interpretation. We discuss mixed signals (“a law that’s trying to be everything to everybody”), and the inevitable complexity of mandating automated tools within established jurisprudence around privacy and intermediary liability safe harbors.
Will this directive hold up against legal challenges before the Court of Justice? As member states of the European Union implement this Directive, will they interpret the safeguards boldy? Or simply replicate the same ambiguities?

Today's episode is an audio postcard from the world of IP litigation in the middle of a pandemic. Over the past few weeks we have collected conversations with law firm litigators, judges, and in-house counsel about how COVID is impacting IP litigation. They talked about how they used to see the world, how things have changed, and how those things may remain changed after the pandemic passes.
We think of this episode as a time capsule. It captures a moment in the late spring and early summer of 2020 where things have been different long enough to understand some of the changes, but not long enough to fully appreciate the impacts of those differences.
