January 2010 Meeting – Internet Advertising
Internet Advertising
Date: Tuesday January 12, 2010
Location: The Westin Cincinnati 21 E. 5th Street Cincinnati, Ohio 45202 United States
Description:
The Guardian reported that the UK reached a watershed mark of the advertisers spending more on internet advertising than on television advertising in September 2009 (http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2009/sep/30/internet-biggest-uk-advertising-sector). As the US approaches this watershed, new legal issues will develop as the issues introduced just a few years ago continue to mature. Recent cases and issues that will be covered include:
* First Amendment/Copyright/Trademark issues as advertisers become more and more creative with online content and as user-generated content becomes even more the norm. Viacom Intl, Inc. v. YouTube, Inc., et al., No. 06-02103 (S.D.N.Y.).
* Contractual issues as social media networks begin the tighten the terms of service [TOS] for using those platforms . See, Facebook TOS.
* ISP liability for trademark infringment - See, Tiffany v. eBay, 576 F. Supp. 2d 463, 2008 WL 2755787 (No. 04 Civ. 4607) (S.D.N.Y. , July 14, 2008). and Louis Vuitton Malletier, S.A. v. Akanoc Solutions, Inc., No. C07-03952 (N.D. Cal.).
Our featured speaker this month is Jill Meyer, a member in the Cincinnati office of Frost Brown Todd. Jill Meyer concentrates her practice on counseling and litigating advertising & media law issues.
