Abstract

Holders of rights sue the intermediately service providers (ISPs) for contributory liability through the ISPs knowledge of infringement specifically for copyright infringement trademark and other rights. Formalism in the light of corrective justice strictly limits ISPs liability to fault based liability theory, but to evaluate ISPs fault gives credit to the probabilistic knowledge that requires ISPs to serve as the police for owners of rights. Furthermore, they are for establishing corrective justice law applies the mathematics though on the knowledge of fault via attempts to achieve all of the answers regarding the measure of evaluating ISPs’ knowledge from secondary liability rather than computing philosophy, social science, or realism. Other common theories recognize chief – justice brain or reasonable man mind induced as critical of ISPs’ knowledge of infringement. This is in contrast with computing mind philosophy. Research will answer inconsistency of theories and ISP knowledge to protect all parties’ rights.

Highlights

  • Nowadays, secondary liability rules a range of diverse activities including copyright and trademark infringement to shield the user rights, service providers, and exclusive right holders

Summary

Introduction

Secondary liability rules a range of diverse activities including copyright and trademark infringement to shield the user rights, service providers, and exclusive right holders It has become more prevalent owing to technological advancements (Noblett, Pollitt & Presley, 2000) (Note 2) and it has manifested a significant revelation in ISP liability regime, since that time secondary liability (for ISP) has moved away from giving more attention to ISP strict liability towards liability based on- fault for copyright infringement in US. This change which focuses on knowledge about the infringement as a legal factor of secondary liability so as to protect parties’ rights in online services (Ahmad, 2011; Koster & Jurgens; Resenberger, Sussman & Silberberg, 2011) (Note 4). To a co- existence between parties’ rights, this gives rise the following questions; Is it time to rely on the common theories (secondary liability with reasonable man mind)? To a co- existence between parties’ rights, this gives rise the following questions; Is it time to rely on the common theories (secondary liability with reasonable man mind)? Is it time to give importance to computing philosophy of knowledge? To answer these questions, this study would examine the current theories in light of formalism and instrumentalism first and would discuss the epistemology of knowledge
