🎯 US Supreme Court Asks Justice Department's Views on Cox Communications Case

The U.S. Supreme Court has requested input from the Justice Department on whether it should review a copyright case involving Cox Communications and a group of music labels. The case follows a lower court decision that overturned a $1 billion jury verdict against Cox, which had been accused of enabling its customers to pirate music.

The Supreme Court is evaluating appeals from both parties regarding different aspects of the lower court's ruling. The music labels, which include Sony Music, Universal Music Group, and Warner Music Group, are challenging a decision that requires a new trial to reassess the damages Cox must pay. Meanwhile, Cox is contesting the court's ruling that holds it liable for copyright violations committed by users of its internet services.

Over 50 music labels collectively sued Cox in 2018, seeking to reinstate the $1 billion judgment. They accused Cox of neglecting to act on numerous copyright infringement notices, failing to cut off repeat offenders, and not taking adequate steps to curb music piracy facilitated through peer-to-peer platforms like BitTorrent.

Similar lawsuits have been filed by major labels against other internet service providers, including Charter Communications, Frontier Communications, and Astound Broadband. In 2019, a federal jury in Alexandria, Virginia, determined that Cox was responsible for $1 billion in damages for the infringement of over 10,000 music copyrights. However, the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond reversed part of this ruling in February and ordered a new trial to reassess the damages.

Modern and Future Regulations in the Field of Technology

Recently we have seen emerging regulations in the field of Technology. Most notable in Europe is arguably the General Data Protection Regulation, hereinafter referred to as the GDPR. The GDPR covers data protection and although some have criticised it e.g. on how complex and immense it is, it still is a trailblazing piece of European regulation where the rights of the individual seem to have been prioritized. Also interesting in this context is the EU Copyright Directive 2019/790, focusing on the digital single market. The directive covers both Copyright and Data Privacy. The EU Directive on Electronic Commerce 2000/31/EC is also one to keep in mind. It ensures the free movement of information society services between member states. It includes rules like liability exemptions for Information Society Service Providers.

I briefly mention this legislation to demonstrate some of the first examples of technology specific regulations. Although consumers may not be award of the law that belies the technology we use, there is regulation out there that affects technology and our rights in that regard. But do we need more regulations regarding technology?

One argument could be that technology specific regulations are completely unnecessary. That other fields of law are fully equipped to answer the questions that come with new technology. In my opinion this might be the right approach sometimes, but definitely not in all cases. We don´t necessarily need to have a set of laws and rules regarding every specific field of technology.  I believe rather that the necessity needs to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. For example, do we need a specific set of rules for autonomous cars, or should we rather restructure laws and rules that are already out there, e.g. regarding insurance or ownership.

I think there will definitely be cases where the current rules aren´t the best fit to answer questions regarding new technology. For example, when it comes to the ethical duties in the field of A.I. or rules regarding taxation if human employees are replaced by robots en masse. Maybe we will even need rethink the legal system in its entirety to be more flexible to adapt to difference in circumstances.

But it is hard to say what will happen in the future, as it is never certain. Regardless, I think there are a few things we need to keep in mind moving forward. Firstly, governmental bodies need to be more alert and aware of new technology and the impact it can have. They need to be fully equipped to assess the need for possible regulations. And secondly, we as human beings, as a part of this world, need to do the same.
