Been away and want to catch up on last week's IP news? No problem! As always, the IPKat team is here to bring you a quick summary: here comes the 117th edition of Never Too Late.
 |
| The very first post from the New InternKat Tian Lu |
The EU Commission unveiled its second copyright package on Sep.14. Not surprisingly, the DSM Directive has attracted the greatest attention. Besides those “much has been said” discussions, Eleonora Rosati brings you her concerns and arguments on the relationship between the DSM Directive and the existing body of case law of the CJEU.
Due to its inconsistency with trade mark’s “origin indication” function, being generic is usually a “oh hell no!” for trademark practitioners. Well, it is not always the case for actual business owners who of course put profits-seeking first. In this article, Neil Wilkof explains his insights on the commercial informative value of generic marks by depicting a nostalgic story of “a Men’s Store in Mid 19th Century”.
The excitement and conveniences that the Internet of Things (IoT) brings come with high prices, such as the vulnerability to hacking, privacy concerns and consumer rights. Debates are therefore heating up. In this article, Nicola Searle brings her vivid reports of the GikII conference (Sep. 30, at London) which is “full of terrifying nightmaresfascinating anecdotes” with a touch of humour.
Well it’s actually not that bad. Until something worse happens… insights from IPKat Alberto Bellan on the Svensson and GS Media cases.
A warm welcome to the new InternKats: Hayleigh Bosher, Tian Lu and Verónica Rodríguez Arguijo!
Mark Schweizer brings us an analysis of the fresh CJEU’s judgement on Combit/Commit (Sep. 22).
