ISPs and Copyright Infringement: The Legal Battle Over Liability - Episode 618 of the Community Broadband Bits Podcast

In this episode of the podcast, Chris is joined by Professor Alfred Yen from Boston College Law School to discuss a pivotal case involving Cox Communications and copyright infringement. 

The conversation centers on whether Internet Service Providers (ISPs) should be held responsible when their subscribers engage in illegal downloading of music.

They explore the complex legal questions surrounding ISP liability, the potential consequences for smaller ISPs, and how this could reshape the relationship between copyright holders and service providers. 

Professor Yen provides insight into the impact this case could have on Internet users and ISPs, especially as the music industry seeks to make ISPs financially accountable for their subscribers' actions.

The episode also touches on broader concerns about how cutting off Internet access could affect critical services like healthcare and business operations, making this a pressing issue with far-reaching implications.

What Happens Now That the Fifth Circuit Has Ruled the Universal Service Fund is Unconstitutional?

On July 24, 2024, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 9-7 that the Universal Service Fund is unconstitutional

The decision throws a whole raft of federal broadband programs - including those which help schools pay for connectivity, those which help homes pay for home Internet access, and more - into a state of uncertainty. 

All signs point to a stop at the Supreme Court for final ruling on the future of the program. On the most recent episode of the Connect This! Show, hosts Christopher Mitchell (ILSR) and Travis Carter (USI Fiber) were joined by regular guests Doug Dawson (CCG Consulting) and Kim McKinley (UTOPIA Fiber) as well as special guest Casey Lide (Keller and Heckman Law Firm) to talk about the decision. They discuss the impact of the decision in the long-term, including how the USF fits into the jigsaw puzzle of federal broadband funding programs and what we can expect to see if the decision is upheld.
