Как правило, вопросы определения применимого права в случае нарушения исключительных прав в сети Интернет рассматриваются под призмой традиционного подхода, не учитывая специфику сети Интернет как децентрализованной и трансграничной сети. Данный факт влечет необходимость критически переосмыслить и актуализировать существующие подходы, касающиеся определения применимого права. Предметом исследования выступают особенности определения права, применимого к установлению факта нарушения исключительных прав, а также права, применимого к способам защиты. Автор анализирует акты различного уровня (Бернская конвенция, законодательные акты Европейского союза, Российской Федерации, Швейцарии, Китайской Народной Республики, акты «мягкого права») и приходит к выводу о том, что акты «мягкого права» содержат предложения по более детальному регулированию рассматриваемых …

This article focuses on the right to a name, which in private law doctrine is traditionally considered a basic human right. The meaning of this right is indisputable and holds a fundamental value for everyone, since a name individualizes each person. However, the purpose of this article is not to tell the history of this right, but to study its nature. The development of the internet and digital technologies has made it possible to take a fresh look at the right to a name; when registering on social media, a person also uses his or her name, and in some …

The paper provides an analysis of virtual reality as a subject of regulation while underlining the similarity of principles in gaming and regulatory activities as the elements of virtual reality. A deeper insight into the relationships between regulatory and gaming activities allows to make a statement that gaming provides a tool for situational analysis to identify the most rational action among the available alternatives thus offering a way to construct a legal reality. Assuming that people will make decisions by weighing costs and benefits to maximize the “utility”, and will interact with others by balancing preferences and constraints, the immersion …

The paper describes the impact of the EU ‘Digital Single Market Strategy’ (DSMS) on consumer law. The essay analyses, in particular, the new Consumer Sales Directive [Directive (EU) 2019/771] and its recent transposition into Italian Law. Starting from the assumption that the Information-Digital Age certainly has social-economic impacts, therefore also legal ones, the paper first of all illustrates the Strategy promoted in 2015 by the European Commission. In order to represent how the Commission intends to face the new digital “revolution” and its economic opportunities, this essay — through a brief description of the main pillars of the DSMS — …

In the creative industry, performers’ interests cannot be met solely through their own actions and the realization of their own creative abilities. Coordinated interaction of representatives of creative professions and show business is necessary. In this area, various kinds of agreements are concluded, which do not always relate to the exercise of intellectual rights. The Civil Code of the Russian Federation regulates in more detail the contractual relations associated with the use of works of authorship, without paying due attention to contracts with performers, producers of phonograms and broadcasting organizations, which leads to the problem of double interpretation in the …

The broad use of artificial intelligence in creating intellectual works poses difficulties for legislators and courts in choosing the proper legal framework for such works and defining the place of artificial intelligence in the legal system as a whole. In this article, we shall study different models of regulating such issues and analyze the prospects and consequences of their use. We show that only a few of many different models for copyrighting AI-generated works are viable and that the most promising among them is the introduction of a special limited related right for the person who organizes the use of …

В статье анализируются правовые подходы, касающиеся использования произведений в цифровой среде, в том числе Интернете и порядка выплаты вознаграждения правообладателям. Законы некоторых иностранных государств предусматривают так называемый механизм справедливого вознаграждения. Он заменяет традиционный способ заключения лицензионных договоров и применяется лишь в случаях, установленных законом. Сбор и распределение такого вознаграждения осуществляют организации по управлению правами на коллективной основе (ОКУП). Статья 1244 Гражданского кодекса Российской Федерации определяет сферы, в которых такие организации могут получить государственную аккредитацию. Аккредитация позволяет данным организациям осуществлять сбор вознаграждения за некоторые правомочия, в частности, публичное исполнение, сообщение в эфир или по кабелю музыкальных произведений и/или фонограмм, опубликованных в …
