Supreme Court says generic domains like booking[dot]com can be trademarked
The US Patent and Trademark Office erred by finding the term booking.com was too generic for trademark protection, the Supreme Court ruled on Tuesday.
Trademark law prohibits anyone from registering generic terms that describe a class of products or services. Anyone can start a store company called "The Wine Company," but they can't use trademark law to stop others from using the same name. When the online travel giant Bookings Holdings sought to trademark its booking.com domain name almost a decade ago, the US Patent and Trademark Office concluded that the same rule applied.

How Mexico's New Copyright Law Crushes Free Expression
When Mexico's Congress rushed through a new copyright law as part of its adoption of Donald Trump's United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), it largely copy-pasted the US copyright statute, with some modifications that made the law even worse for human rights.
The result is a legal regime that has all the deficits of the US system, and some new defects that are strictly hecho en Mexico, to the great detriment of the free expression rights of the Mexican people.
Mexico's Constitution has admirable, far-reaching protections for the free expression rights of its people. Mexico’s Congress is not merely prohibited from censoring its peoples' speech -- it is also banned from making laws that would cause others to censor Mexicans' speech.

Turkey's New Internet Law Is the Worst Version of Germany's NetzDG Yet
For years, free speech and press freedoms have been under attack in Turkey. The country has the distinction of being the world’s largest jailer of journalists and has in recent years been cracking down on online speech. Now, a new law, passed by the Turkish Parliament on the 29th of July, introduces sweeping new powers and takes the country another giant step towards further censoring speech online. The law was ushered through parliament quickly and without allowing for opposition or stakeholder inputs and aims for complete control over social media platforms and the speech they host.
The bill was introduced after a series of allegedly insulting tweets aimed at President Erdogan’s daughter and son-in-law and ostensibly aims to eradicate hate speech and harassment online. Turkish lawyer and Vice President of Ankara Bar Association IT, Technology & Law Council Gülşah Deniz-Atalar called the law "an attempt to initiate censorship to erase social memory on digital spaces."

Mexico's New Copyright Law Undermines Mexico's National Sovereignty, Continuing Generations of Unfair "Fair Trade Deals" Between the USA and Latin America
Earlier this month, Mexico's Congress hastily imported most of the US copyright system into Mexican law, in a dangerous and ill-considered act. But neither this action nor its consequences occurred in a vacuum: rather, it was a consequence of Donald Trump's US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), the successor to NAFTA.
Trade agreements are billed as creating level playing fields between nations to their mutual benefit. But decades of careful scholarship show that poorer nations typically come off worse through these agreements, even when they are subjected to the same rules, because the same rules don't have the same effect on different countries. Besides that, Mexico has now adopted worse rules than its trade partners.

NSW Police says domestic carriers complying with encryption laws but internationals are not
Alongside the Australian Federal Police, NSW Police says TOLA powers have upped relationships with domestic carriers but has caused further barriers with international ones.
The New South Wales Police Force has submitted 13 non-compulsive Technical Assistance Requests (TARs) to designated communications providers (DCPs) since the enactment of the Telecommunications and Other Legislation Amendment (Assistance and Access) Act 2018 (TOLA Act).
NSW Police assistant commissioner Michael Fitzgerald told the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security (PJCIS) the requests were related to investigations into murder, armed robbery, and commercial drug supply and importation.

A new license to hack
The German Federal Intelligence Service (BND) is to be allowed to hack mobile phone and Internet providers quite legally in the future. This is the result of the new BND draft law, which we are publishing. The Federal Constitutional Court had classified the old law as unconstitutional and overturned it.
The German Federal Intelligence Service is looking for hackers (m/f/d) via job advertisement and overwrites an employee story with a license to hack. Business trips abroad belong to the intelligence hackers like "unique" attack tools with which they are supposed to penetrate computer networks and collect data. The focus of the BND is on networks outside Germany. For a long time, the secret service agents considered non-European countries in particular to be "outlawed".
In May, the Federal Constitutional Court set the BND the highest judicial limits. The judges from Karlsruhe made it clear: Even abroad, the German state is bound by basic rights; human dignity and the secrecy of telecommunications apply not only to Germans. The highest court declared the only four-year-old BND law of the Grand Coalition unconstitutional.
The legislator must therefore amend the BND law by the end of 2021. The Federal Chancellery has prepared a draft bill and sent it to the other ministries on Friday. We publish the draft law in full text.
As the employer of the secret service, the Federal Chancellery tries with the new law to comply with the court's requirements on the one hand and to restrict the BND as little as possible on the other hand. This can be seen among other things in the offensive hacking powers.

Switzerland: Draft anti-terrorism law sets ‘dangerous precedent’, rights experts warn
A proposed new anti-terrorism law in Switzerland could set a dangerous precedent for the suppression of political dissent worldwide, a group of five independent UN human rights experts warned on Friday.
The draft legislation, currently before the Swiss Parliament, expands the definition of terrorism and no longer requires the prospect of any crime at all, they said, in a plea for a last-minute reversal by legislators.

China releases draft of major new privacy law: why it matters to everyone online
China has frequently figured in this blog, usually in the context of its censorship, surveillance activities, and wide-ranging abuse of human rights. But there’s another side to the story. Like other people around the world, China’s billion or so Internet users want their privacy protected when they go online. Trying to satisfy that need while preserving state control is a tough problem that the Chinese authorities have been grappling with recently. Back in May 2018, the Personal Information Security Specification took effect.
It offered “granular guidelines for consent and how personal data (called “personal information”) should be collected, used, and shared”, as the introduction to a translation of the new digital rules by New America puts it. Now the Chinese government has followed that up with a draft version of the Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL), a far more comprehensive and rigorous approach to protecting the digital privacy of Chinese citizens. A blog post on New America explains:
"China’s draft PIPL represents a third way between the sectoral U.S. approach, which applies different rules for specific industries or classes of consumers, and the European Union’s comprehensive General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) framework, which enshrines fundamental rights across contexts. With the draft law, China’s evolving data governance regime emphasizes consumer privacy while also prioritizing national security through data localization measures, cross-border data flow restrictions, and continued surveillance and law enforcement powers."
The New America post points out that the PIPL draws quite heavily on the GDPR, which provides further proof of the influence of the latter legislation, something noted many times before on this blog. In the draft, the definitions of personal information, sensitive information, individual rights, and legal bases for processing, all have similarities to the EU framing. However, China’s requirements for national security mean that there are important differences when it comes to data flows.
Under the GDPR, these are allowed provided privacy is safeguarded. Under the PIPL, the limitations are far greater. China’s existing “Cybersecurity law” requires data held by so-called “critical information infrastructure” operators – essentially the most important digital companies – to be stored in China. The PIPL would require personal data referring to Chinese citizens to be stored within the country, even for some smaller companies. A rigorous assessment by China’s cybersecurity department is needed before any personal data can be sent abroad. In addition, the PIPL would grant the authorities the power to establish a blacklist of overseas companies that are banned from processing Chinese personal data if it is determined they violate China’s national security interests.
Moreover, the PIPL would allow the government to retaliate against entire countries that are deemed to have taken discriminatory regulatory measures against Chinese companies in the field of data protection. This is clearly with a view to counter the growing calls in the West to shut out Chinese companies from processing citizens’ personal data.

Apple accused of breaking UK competition law by overcharging for apps
Almost 20 million users could be eligible for compensation, with £1.5bn damages sought
Apple is facing a demand for billions of pounds of consumer compensation in a British lawsuit that accuses the company of overcharging users by up to 30% on its App Store.
The claim argues that Apple’s restrictive policies, which limit app developers to using its own payment systems, are generating “excessive” profits for the company and leading to consumers paying more than they otherwise would. As a collective action, it seeks to represent the almost 20 million people in the UK who have spent money on the App Store, and seeks damages of up to £1.5bn.
Apple has dismissed the action as “meritless”.
Leading the suit is Dr Rachael Kent, an expert in the digital economy and lecturer at King’s College, University of London, who said: “The App Store was a brilliant gateway for a range of interesting and innovative services that millions of us find useful, myself included. But 13 years after its launch, it has become the only gateway for millions of consumers. Apple guards access to the world of apps jealously, and charges entry and usage fees that are completely unjustified.
“This is the behaviour of a monopolist and is unacceptable.”

It is MY CHOICE to provide you my personal medical information — even if you prove that you follow the procedures for protecting all information under the above law.

Human Rights Legal Explanation Letter
Keep a copy of the below Legal Explanation Letter — always with you — provided by Tamil Nadu Reform Movement; and keep in mind the contents mentioned in it. Don't forget to use it when you get in trouble — from persons doing illegal activities — in the name of covid.
Write down the person's name — who force you to take a test, vaccination or wear face mask — their designation and full address of the recipient; and send it only by registered post with acknowledgment card or their official email address. Ask him to show you — the identity card of the person — who is interfering with you — ask him to respond to the contents of the human rights explanatory letter and defend yourself legally.
Do not give in person for any reason. Also, keep a copy of this with you at the place — where the tyranny is taking place; and a copy of the letter that you've sent to the District Magistrate — requesting information about covid.

SPDI REFUSAL LETTER.docx
16.8 KB
Meet the school principal in person — and discuss about the issues mentioned in the document. Have a copy of the email — you've sent to District Magistrates. If they don't stop it, tell them you'll send this legal notice — by registered post with acknowledgement due or by email — to protect your kids from the tyrants — and wouldn't hesitate to file a lawsuit against them.
It can also be used in colleges where they use coercive injection — for attending classes. If all students coordinate together (along with already who got injected) — and don't comply to their orders en masse, they will hopefully withdraw coercive injection and suffocation (mask) mandates.
