anonymity review in law journal
Hi everyone, someone tipped me off to a law review article by Anne Branscomb entitled Anonymity, Autonomy, and Accountability: Challenges to the First Amendment in Cyberspaces 104 Yale L F 1639. I have not seen this myself or noticed it mentioned here but it might be an interesting read for anyone who has access to it, and useful as a footnote in someone's paper, web filling, pointer for reporters, fish wrapping, or bird cage lining. (as Alfred E. Neuman might note) ~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^ \ / ~/ |\| | | |> | : : : : : : Vladimir Z.

I expect this is the Anne Wells Branscomb who reviewed the Rimm job for the Georgetown Law Journal. According to http://catalog.com/columbia/homepage/ftr/995.html, she `called the study's methodology "academically rigorous."' She is a professor at the GWU law school. Alas, neither the GWU law school nor the Yale law school seems to have any measurable presence on the WWW. A Lycos search turned up a footnote pointing to an article she wrote for Scientific American: Branscomb, A. W.: Common law for the electronic frontier. In Scientific American, September 1991, pp. 154-158. A paper by Norderhaug and Oberding on "Designing a Web of Intellectual Property" at http://www.ifi.uio.no/~terjen/pub/webip/950220.html that cites the SciAm piece mentions that: Branscomb [bra91] reminds us that the rigors of the market economy are such that it is not a viable economic policy to give away the results of intellectual labor without a fair and equitable compensation. Thus I would be rather surprised if the anonymity/autonomy/accountability paper turned out to be notably sympathetic to anonymity. That would make it all the more interesting to see.... -Futplex <futplex@pseudonym.com>
