Intellectual Property Rights
Right of control over the copying, distribution, and sale of intellectual property which is codified in the copyright laws.
The future of intellectual property rights is unclear, as the Internet makes mass distribution and copying quick and easy. Many schemes have been considered, including using encryption to mark computer files or prevent copying in an effort to safeguard these rights. The World Intellectual Property Organization runs an online arbitration service for disputes over Internet addresses.
