EuGH: Programmiersprachen sind nicht urheberrechtlich geschützt

Mon, 14 May 2012 09:53:44 GMT

Der Europäische Gerichtshof hat heute entschieden, dass Programmiersprachen und die Funktionalität von Computerprogrammen nicht urheberrechtlich geschützt werden können. In der Rechtssache C-406/10 ging es um einen Konflikt zwischen dem SAS Institute, Entwickler einer eigenen Programmiersprache, und der Firma World Programming Ltd, die auf der SAS-Sprache aufbaute, um eine alternative Software anzubieten.

In der Pressemitteilung (pdf) zum Urteil erklärte der EuGH:

weder die Funktionalität eines Computerprogramms noch die Programmiersprache oder das Dateiformat, die im Rahmen eines Computerprogramms verwendet werden, um bestimmte Funktionen des Programms zu nutzen, eine Ausdrucksform darstellen.

Ließe man nämlich zu, dass die Funktionalität eines Computerprogramms urheberrechtlich geschützt wird, würde man zum Schaden des technischen Fortschritts und der industriellen Entwicklung die Möglichkeit eröffnen, Ideen zu monopolisieren.

Come join the Metalab! With the help of our bright hackers it will take you only a few years of studying code, manuals and data sheets at the library, night shifts of practicing basic research at the hardware lab while sipping Club-Mate - but before you could turn around you too will invent such smart hacks the world has waited for so long.

"As everybody knows now, we did not pump public money into the failed banks. We treated them like private companies that went bankrupt, and we let them fail. Some people say we did it because we didn’t have any other option, there is clearly something in that argument, but it does not change the fact that it turned out to be a wise move or whatever reason. Whereas in many other countries, the prevailing orthodoxy is you pump public money into banks and you make taxpayers responsible for the banks in the long run, and somehow treat the banks as if they are holier institutions in the economy than manufacturing companies, commercial companies, IT companies, or whatever. And I have never really understood the argument: why a private bank or financial fund is somehow holier for the well being and future of the economy than the industrial sector, the IT sector, the creative sector, or the manufacturing sector."

Airless Tires

Sun, 22 Apr 2012 09:35:46 GMT

19:13 10.04.2012, mayank, amazing, World Of Technology

Resilient Tech has been testing these tires out for some time now, developing them for the military.

Its a radical new design by Michelin and made in South Carolina. They are the next generation of tires and have already been previewed in Philadelphia at a car show.

Here it is in motion….(wonder how it rides?)

These tires are airless and should be on the market soon….if they aren’t already. They aren’t so good for law enforcement, since spike strips will not be useful. But just think!! No more airing up your tires….no more fix-a-flat repair kits!

""Ja, wir brauchen diese Daten." Friedrich König, Leiter der Abteilung Strafverfahrensrecht im Justizministerium, ist von der Notwendigkeit der Vorratsdatenspeicherung überzeugt. Die verdachtsunabhängige Speicherung sämtlicher Verkehrsdaten aller Österreicher sei "essenziell" für die Ermittlungen der Staatsanwaltschaft."

• Die von der zugrundeliegenden Richtlinie vorgegebene Bekämpfung schwerer Kriminalität wird durch die VDS nicht merkbar gefördert (belegt durchStudien, keine Gegenstudien, immer nur emotionale Einzelfälle)

• selbst für den mittelschweren Bereich - zB Straftaten mit knapp über einem Jahr Strafrahmen - konnte kein Anstieg der Aufklärungsquote belegt werden, wo die VDS schon umgesetzt wurde

• Geeignet ist die VDS höchstens, ein "diffuses Gefühl der ständigen Überwachung" (dt. BVErfG) zu erzeugen und damit soziale Kontrolle auszuüben (verborgener Zweck ohne echten Plan)
