Automated Copyright Filters

The automated filtering of upload attempts to online platforms is one of the most contentious issues in the fields of copyright enforcement and platform regulation. Notwithstanding the impassioned debate, research from a law and economics perspective is scarce. This book presents the first comprehensive economic analysis of automated copyright filtering. The author develops an economic model of the competition between right holders and copyright-infringing uploaders on a platform. Furthermore, he applies insights from the economic literature on decision-making under uncertainty and incentive alignment to automated copyright filtering. The analysis disentangles complex relationships and challenges prevailing assumptions. It offers a novel perspective on the implications of automated filtering for the objectives of copyright policy, on the avoidance of erroneous filtering decisions, and on regulatory approaches to automated filtering. The author employs his findings to evaluate the current US and EU legal frameworks and proposes improvements. This book will appeal to researchers and policy makers interested in automated filtering, copyright enforcement, and platform regulation.
Political Automation

Author: Eduardo Albrecht
language: en
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Release Date: 2025
Governments now routinely use AI-based software to gather information about citizens and determine the level of privacy a person can enjoy, how far they can travel, what public benefits they may receive, and what they can and cannot say publicly. What input do citizens have in how these machines think? In Political Automation, Eduardo Albrecht explores this question in various domains, including policing, national security, and international peacekeeping. Drawing upon interviews with rights activists, Albrecht examines popular attempts to interact with this novel form of algorithmic governance so far. He then proposes the idea of a Third House, a virtual chamber that legislates exclusively on AI in government decision-making and is based on principles of direct democracy, unlike existing upper and lower houses that are representative. Digital citizens, AI powered replicas of ourselves, would act as our personal emissaries to this Third House. An in-depth look at how political automation impacts the lives of citizens, this book addresses the challenges at the heart of automation in public policy decision-making and offers a way forward.
