PROF. MARKIEWICZ: INTERNET EXPLOITATION REMUNERATION LAW ECONOMICALLY RISKY – WHY PROTECT THE SAME PROJECT WITH MULTIPLE RIGHTS?

In the second part of the text on the law.pl portal, about the bad Polish draft transposition of Directive 2019/790 on equitable remuneration, Prof. Ryszard Markiewicz confronts the special privileging of creators of streaming works on the Internet with their full “oblivion” in the rest. “5 minutes about IPR” is a joint initiative of Markiewicz & Sroczynski GP and Wolters Kluwer Polska, entirely devoted to issues related to intellectual property law (i.e.: copyright, industrial property and combating unfair competition). The “5 minutes about IPR” texts will appear at least twice a month. The premise here is to take you 5 minutes to pay attention to something we are passionate about and you will be interested in. The articles will therefore be short, clear and, if possible, also “illustrated”. We would like “5 Minutes on IPR” to become a source of knowledge about important changes and rulings, an inspiration for discussion, and a source of new, including controversial, interpretive ideas. Above all, however, we hope that it will be simply interesting.
