I wonder if this is because it's too easy to be sued in this country. If you
explain the law and publish it, and someone then commits a crime and says it's
because he or she thought it wasn't a crime because of the wording of your
explanation ... Oops! (It can be like that with medical advice as well.) So I
guess the only really safe way is to publish the entirety of the copyright laws
without your own comments, interpretation and explanation. This is just my
hunch.</span></i><span style="font-size: 11pt;"></span></div>

<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Does this
mean that a lawyer is a lawyer 24/7 in the US? Is he never allowed to
communicate on law while on a holiday for example? </span></p>

now more than 200 medical applications available for an iPhone (among which an
ECG guide). Do you really mean that Apple could be held liable for providing a
platform for such content? Or would it rather be the developers that could get
sued if an individual misinterprets some result?</span></p>

Example scenario:</span><br style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);">
An author has been dead for over 70 years. Someone finds his or her poems
scattered on bits of paper all over a musty attic. The finder collects these
found poems and publishes them in an anthology. This is clearly the only
published source of that poet's works. Can someone else then use the poems in
his or her own publication without asking for permission?</span></span></p>
<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">The 70 year
term is only true for published works. If the work is unpublished yet and you
are the first to publish it, you can gain a right on it - depending on your
local laws. In the EU you gain rights on the work for 25 years (this is called
"Editio princeps"). But I believe the US don't know this rule and the
work is still free.<br>
