:?:?:?

but it has the original text. Freedom of Speech(Amendment 1) and the right to Privacy(Amendment 4) are found in the first 10 amendments known as the Bill of Rights.

any cases you found on copyright and patents should lead you back to which Amendment they are contained in.

unless i'm totally missing your point here...:-[

edit copyright protection:Article 1 Section 8, Clause 8:

To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries;

article on patent protection:

http://pubs.acs.org/subscribe/journals/mdd/v03/i08/html/10patents.html

but i would've thought that copyright and patent protection were the same, which is what this article says:

I already found the Freedom of Speech Law
but for the Privacy I was looking for somwthing else...but I think this can work too

for the patent and the copy right...yeah they are the same, thats what I read when I was searching and thats why I am confused....I wonder why our Prof. ask for them in two separate questions:?
