商品描述

An up-to-the-minute executive's briefing on Internet law and regulation.

  • How the rapidly evolving law of the Internet is transforming the e-Business playing field.
  • Privacy, patents, and intellectual property: what the debates mean to you.
  • Critical information and insights you need to influence public policy!

New government regulation, legislation, and technology trends are dramatically changing the Web, making yesterday's assumptions obsolete -- often, disastrously so. In this thought-provoking book, leading Web consultant Bill Zoellick offers an up-to-minute executive briefing on the enormous paradigm shift that's under way -- giving businesspeople the critical information they need to understand its impact, and influence the debate. Yesterday's popular notion -- that the Web's freedom-loving nature will sweep away existing rules, business arrangements, and governments -- has proven to be a hopelessly poor foundation for planning, strategy, and investment. Will yesterday's wide-eyed anarchy be replaced by tomorrow's cynicism and control? Can a middle ground be found that will protect the Web's vitality and your business interests? This book focuses on four key areas of public policy and Web technology: patent, copyright, privacy policy, and electronic signatures. For each topic, Zoellick presents a brief history of the issues, litigation, and legislation, and applies the state-of-the-law to a current Web business. The result: a "big picture" view that helps businesspeople recognize the issues, understand their short-term and long-term interests -- and impact the outcome.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

最新的網路法律與規範高層簡報。
- 網路法律的快速演變如何改變電子商務的競爭環境。
- 隱私、專利與智慧財產權:這些辯論對的意義。
- 影響公共政策所需的關鍵資訊與見解!

新的政府規範、立法與技術趨勢正在劇烈改變網路,使得過去的假設變得過時——往往是災難性的。在這本引人深思的書中,知名網路顧問比爾·佐利克(Bill Zoellick)提供了有關正在進行的巨大範式轉變的最新高層簡報——為商業人士提供他們理解其影響並影響辯論所需的關鍵資訊。過去流行的觀念——網路的自由本質將會掃除現有的規則、商業安排和政府——已被證明是計劃、策略和投資的無望基礎。過去的天真無邪的無政府狀態是否會被明天的冷漠與控制所取代?是否能找到一個中間地帶,既能保護網路的活力能保護你的商業利益?這本書專注於公共政策與網路技術的四個關鍵領域:專利、著作權、隱私政策和電子簽名。對於每個主題,佐利克提供了問題、訴訟和立法的簡要歷史,並將現行法律應用於當前的網路商業。結果:一個「大局」的視角,幫助商業人士識別問題,理解他們的短期和長期利益——並影響結果。
